Our law firm can look back on many years of activity in the field of corporate law and can therefore draw on well-founded expertise.

Corporate law is of great importance in business life, because every successful company is based on a successful corporate structure. This requires a solid legal foundation, and we can support you in establishing it.

Below you will find a brief insight into Austrian corporate law:

Corporate law is a special area of private law and essentially regulates the internal and external relationships of companies. The Austrian legal system provides a number of different company forms. The existing company forms are conclusively regulated by law (numerus clausus of company forms). They differ considerably in some respects, particularly with regard to liability regimes and formation requirements.

A core area of corporate law is the drafting of the articles of association or partnership agreement. Here, the shareholders or partners can make arrangements that the law, such as the Limited Liability Companies Act, does not provide for or provides for only in part. We will be pleased to help you find the appropriate company form for your business and advise you on drafting your articles of association. Through our long-standing cooperation with notaries specialising in corporate law, we can offer you corporate-law support from advice and the preparation of any required notarial deed through to registration in the companies register from a single source.
