Lawyers for Corporate / M&A

The CMS team for corporate/M&A work is among the largest in Germany, with more than 250 lawyers across eight locations. Our lawyers for corporate matters and mergers & acquisitions combine in-depth legal skills with extensive industry expertise.

The size of our Corporate/M&A practice enables us to respond flexibly to different circumstances and provide the right advisors for every matter, whether your transaction calls for an experienced corporate lawyer with specific industry knowledge or a large team. 

When dealing with particularly complex legal issues, we draw on lawyers from other areas within the firm to bolster our Corporate/M&A teams. The same partner always remains your point of contact, continues to coordinate the project and is personally responsible for the matter. 

Please see below for a list with the contact details of our lawyers specialising in mergers & acquisitions. They will be happy to help with any queries.
