Deutschland > Gesellschaftsrecht und M&A > Gesellschaftsrecht

Führende deutsche Unternehmen, einschließlich DAX-Konzerne, vertrauen auf Baker McKenzies umfassende gesellschaftsrechtliche Expertise, die Corporate Governance genauso einschließt wie Themen an den Schnittstellen zum Kapitalmarkt-, Aktien-, Steuer- und Arbeitsrecht. Diese Kompetenzkonstellation bedingt ein stetes Mandatsaufkommen sowohl zu Hauptversammlungen und Vorstands- und Aufsichtsratsangelegenheiten als auch betreffend Umstrukturierungen, Umwandlungen, einschließlich SE-Umwandlungen, und Post-M&A-Themen. Christian Atzler und Berthold Hummel leiten die kombinierte M&A- und Corporate-Praxisgruppe und legen den Fokus auf die M&A- und PE-Transaktionsarbeit. Ebenso zum Kernteam zählen der entlang des gesamten gesellschaftsrechtlichen Spektrums agierende Christian Vocke und die oftmals an der aktien- und kapitalmarktrechtlichen Schnittstelle beratende Katharina Stüber. Michael Bartosch (Corporate, M&A, PE, VC) wechselte im Dezember 2023 zu Jones Day.
