Accelerate your growth with full legal and tax security
Every growth operation, in France or abroad, involves contractual, tax and operational risks.
Legal Growth secures your projects to turn your acquisitions and joint ventures into long-term growth drivers.
Poorly prepared external growth: value destroyed
Incomplete due diligence: hidden liabilities (debt, disputes, tax and compliance risks).
Inadequate tax structuring: double taxation, cash leakage, evaporating synergies.
Unclear governance: shareholder conflicts, decision-making deadlocks.
Unsecured operational contracts: supplier/client dependency, onerous clauses.
Legal Growth maps these risks upstream (legal & tax value-oriented due diligence), proposes remedies and secures the transaction before signing.
Post-acquisition disputes and claims on asset/liability guarantees.
Integration delays and unrealised synergies.
Multi-country tax reassessments (transfer pricing, withholding tax, VAT).
Loss of investor or partner trust.
Legal Growth locks the deal both legally and fiscally:
SPA/shareholders’ agreement clauses (GAP, earn-out, MAC, covenants), price adjustments, robust tax structures, TSA & integration plans — delivering secure and measurable growth.
When the deal fails…
