One of the most important early decisions in founding a company is choosing the right legal structure. We provide guidance on the legal advantages and disadvantages of different legal forms, such as GmbH, GbR, or UG, and help you select the structure that best suits your business model. Additionally, we support you in drafting and adapting the articles of association.

In the early stages of a start-up company, protecting business ideas and sensitive information is crucial. We draft legally compliant Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) to ensure that confidential information remains protected when shared with potential business partners and investors.

Successful start-ups often collaborate with partners to advance their business ideas. We support you in legally structuring these collaborations and drafting agreements that regulate the rights and obligations of all parties involved.

Typically, start-ups begin with the preliminary company phase. In this phase, the company does not yet conclude any contracts with customers. Instead, the founders prepare for their future market presence, i.e. the business activities. We support you in this critical early stage, which often requires legal structuring. We draft partnership (GbR) agreements that address key aspects such as liability, termination options, decision-making processes, and future profit distribution.

Securing long-term financing is one of the greatest challenges faced by start-up founders. We provide legal advice on structuring financing agreements, including silent partnerships, profit participation loans, convertible loans, and subordinated loans.
