Gleiss Lutz regularly advises German and foreign clients on national and international corporate acquisitions and mergers. Gleiss Lutzs`client base includes global groups and major listed corporations, as well as family-run SMEs. Our services cover the entire spectrum of possible transactions, including public and private takeovers, management buyouts, leveraged buyouts, and asset deals - regardless of the kind of M&A transaction, Gleiss Lutz has the requisite expertise.

The fact that Gleiss Lutz has renowned experts in all fields relevant to corporate acquisitions (e.g. antitrust, tax, labour and employment, intellectual property, environment and state aid, etc.) is a real asset - we can generate genuine added value for the client in complex transactions, as well as in the context of any restructuring measures that may precede or follow them. Our litigation and arbitration specialists will handle any disputes arising out of or in connection with a transaction. 

Thanks to our international network, for cross-border M&A transactions we can offer clients in every jurisdiction tailor-made advice from premier law firms. With just one contact person appointed to them, clients can always be sure who they are dealing with. As a non-merged law firm, when selecting local lawyers we can allow for both the client’s specific wishes and special local circumstances.

A survey on the subject of M&A-related legal advice that was conducted among companies nationwide by the German business journal Finance revealed that clients appreciate the pragmatic, client-oriented advice Gleiss Lutz provides (no. 2 in this category) and confirmed that the level of legal competence we offer is extraordinarily high (no. 1 in this category).
