CORPORATE LAW

Understanding the inner workings of corporate law is the cornerstone of most matters handled by Attorneys at law Borenius and has a central role in the livelihood of the clients that we represent on a daily basis.

Our corporate law services include corporate structuring issues, such as establishment of a company, mergers and de-mergers as well as corporate governance and legal risk management, including matters concerning directors’ liabilities and responsibilities and shareholders’ rights.

The legal framework for Finnish limited liability companies offers a flexible tool for companies to introduce innovative solutions to such things as fundraising, joint ventures and shareholder governance. The flexible regulation, however, places special emphasis on general company law principles, which, in turn, necessitates sophisticated analysis of the effects of the regulation to the planned actions and interrelationship of the interested parties.

Our corporate law experts take an open-minded approach to traditional company law issues and seek to develop creative solutions to the issues faced by companies and their shareholders. We offer commercial sense and practical regulatory expertise drawn from the wide spectrum of transactions and other arrangements our lawyers are regularly involved in.

Our full range of services means that our corporate law practise combines the specialist expertise available in our tax, employment, competition, M&A, capital markets and dispute resolution practises.

Combining expertise in all relevant disciplines allows us to consider the broader picture. This avoids pitfalls caused by narrow focus on a limited knowledge sector.
