Corporate
(Re)Structures
It may be wise to divide the business activities over several BVs or NVs, for example to better distribute risks. The entry of new shareholders can also be a reason to change the business structure. It also happens that over the years the business structure has become too complex for effective management of the business processes. Sarfaty Advocaten can help you to structure your business activities as optimally as possible from a legal perspective.
Directors' liability
With the increasing legalisation and regulation density of society, the risks of liability and liability claims for directors and supervisors are also increasing. Sarfaty Advocaten advises you on the risks and can assist you with advice and support in managing and avoiding the risks of such liabilities as much as possible. We also assist parties in proceedings in the field of directors' liability.
Commercial Contracts
Sarfaty Advocaten can assist you with advice on all kinds of commercial business contracts and the drafting thereof, such as financing contracts, participation agreements, distribution contracts, agency agreements, etc.
Corporate Litigation
The collective term “corporate litigation” covers legal proceedings between but also within legal entities and sometimes also partnerships such as the VOF or the partnership. Sarfaty Advocaten litigates for its clients regarding a wide range of disputes. From disagreements between shareholders and directors, liability of supervisors such as commissioners to disputes about the performance of takeover contracts. They act for both the defendant and the plaintiff.
Joint Ventures
Sometimes a takeover is not an option, but companies choose to join forces in one or more business activities. Such collaborations can take all kinds of forms. From a collaboration agreement to a joint B.V. or a collaboration within a VOF or partnership, with or without B.V.s of the collaborating parties. Sarfaty Advocaten will guide you in choosing between the various options to arrive at the best possible structure for your joint venture and to clearly record the agreements made.
M&A
M&A stands for Mergers & Acquisitions, which refers to the sale or purchase of companies. Central to this practice is often the so-called “SPA”; the Share Purchase Agreement in which the conditions of the sale are regulated, such as the sales price, but also which guarantees the buyer requires from the seller regarding the transferred company. We assist various entrepreneurs in arriving at the best possible conditions for a transaction for them.
Corporate law
Corporate law regulates the internal organization of private and public limited companies, such as the powers of directors, shareholders and supervisors. Since the introduction of the so-called “Flex BV”, more options have been created in this area to meet the wishes of the practice, such as shares without voting rights or profit rights. Sarfaty Advocaten will be happy to advise you on the optimal corporate structure for your company.
