Mergers, Acquisitions, Corporate Law Mergers

Personal and creative support, a pragmatic approach respectful of cultural specificities.

BMHAVOCATS assists its French and foreign clients (industrial, services, private equity or turnaround funds, banks) in the negotiation and documentation of primarily cross-border, small or mid-market mergers-acquisitions transactions. Thanks to a powerful and recognized network with colleagues practicing abroad, we also support our French clients in their international development.

BMHAVOCATS stands out particularly for its multicultural, especially German-speaking, awareness. This enables a personalised approach in the service of a foreign clientele.
