Industrial & automotive

The industrial and automotive sectors face dual pressure: fragile global supply chains and accelerated ecological transition (batteries, recycling, emissions reduction). Without robust contracts or adapted tax structuring, these challenges turn into eroded margins, costly disputes and operational bottlenecks.

Legal Growth secures your industrial and automotive operations across contracts, taxation, compliance and partnerships.
The objective: protect your margins, reduce your risks and support your international growth.

1. Securing industrial and automotive contracts

Distribution, subcontracting, equipment supply: every link in the supply chain is exposed to imbalanced clauses or disputes.
A poorly drafted contract can wipe out your margins or block your operations.

Legal Growth secures your supply, production and distribution contracts to ensure operational continuity and protect your margins.

2. Regulatory and environmental compliance

Industrial and automotive companies must integrate increasingly strict obligations: CO₂ standards, recycling requirements, ESG compliance, CSRD reporting.
Non-compliance triggers financial sanctions and weakens access to financing.

Legal Growth anticipates and integrates these obligations into your contracts and partnerships to preserve your credibility and attractiveness.

3. Cross-border tax optimisation

Industrial and automotive flows are frequently international (EU, Asia, Americas).
Poor structuring leads to double taxation, withholding tax losses or fiscal requalification — reducing margins and complicating financing.

Legal Growth structures your flows (management fees, royalties, transfer pricing) and secures your tax schemes to avoid reassessments and optimise results.
