Legal Consultancy

The great advantage of PKF is that it can provide business consulting, tax consulting and legal consulting – all from a single source. In other words, business- and tax-related issues are always viewed in their relevant legal context.

By the same token, we always bear in mind the business- and tax-related impact of our legal proposals. Instead of merely providing stand-alone advice we map out comprehensive, economically sound and legally correct solutions. This manifests itself in the fact that the majority of the PKF lawyers hold additional qualifications as certified accountants, tax advisors and/or taxation attorneys. Thanks to this interdisciplinary approach, PKF is in a position to perform highly complex assignments on behalf of its clients.

PKF provides the following legal consulting services for businesses and business owners:

  • Legal and tax-related consulting
    This ranges from the drafting of straightforward contracts (e.g. purchase agreements and commercial rent agreements) to the formulation of complex legal documents such as corporate purchase agreements and project agreements.
  • Formation and restructuring of all types of business enterprise (e.g. sole proprietorships, partnerships, joint stock corporations), including reorganisations and mergers.
  • Advice on the establishment of foundations and associations – also with regard to questions of non-profit status.
  • Transactions consulting (M&A) (e.g. purchase and disposal of business enterprises), including legal and tax-related due diligence
  • Advice for start-up enterprises, including questions of finance
  • Succession of assets and business enterprises
    Legal and tax-related advice on legacies, gifts and succession issues, including the drafting of wills and inheritance contracts and the execution of wills.
  • Representation before courts of law and the tax authorities
  • Legal protection in connection with criminal proceedings instituted under criminal law
  • Legal protection in connection with other company law proceedings
  • Advice on other commercial law issues (e.g. competition and antitrust law, trade mark law, licence agreements) as well as labour and social security law
  • Adjudication and arbitration services

Legal consulting services are available at selected PKF locations.
