Corporate – M&A

A valuable partner for French and multi-jurisdictional M&A transactions

M&A

Levine Keszler supports its clients throughout the process of drafting and negotiating documentation. It coordinates teams with expertise in related areas such as tax law and employment law, in order to provide its clients with the most effective service tailored to their transaction.
Our clients include directors and legal and finance departments of large French and foreign companies, SMEs and VSEs, for their corporate and transactional operations.

Distressed M&A

We frequently assist our clients with mergers and acquisitions involving distressed companies, particularly in the context of insolvency proceedings (sauvegarde, redressement ou liquidation judiciaire).
These transactions, which are often carried out as a matter of urgency, present major legal, financial and operational challenges. They require a cross-functional approach combining our expertise in corporate, restructuring and insolvency proceedings.
Whether we are dealing with buyers, investors or creditors, we offer tailor-made strategic support that is secure at every stage of the transaction.

Securities – Capital markets

We regularly advise French and international issuers and investors on capital market transactions, particularly private placements of shares or bond issues on French regulated markets.
We advise on the corporate aspects of these transactions: legal structuring, governance, shareholder relations, and the negotiation and drafting of transaction documentation. We also advise on the capital and strategic impacts of these transactions.
