Mergers and acquisitions (M&A)
We have an experienced team counselling Danish and international clients on all aspects in connection with Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A). To the extent necessary and subject to prior agreement with the client we involve external specialists for e.g. conducting a financial due diligence, environmental reviews etc. We carefully plan our use of resources in connection with the particular transaction to the effect that the final costs for the client match the transaction.
Legal due diligence is reported in a well-planned manner given you a good grasp of the legal aspects influencing the purchase price.
Our international network ensures that we can handle cross-border mergers and acquisitions.
