Tax planning

Conversions of legal entities

Whether a change in the legal entity, partial sale or outsourcing, companies usually change their form in the context of mergers & acquisitions (M&A). All legal and tax aspects of a company are affected by this. We assist you on the tax and legal structuring and optimization of transactions, in particular with regard to the German Reorganization Tax Act, as well as maximizing tax allowances and advantages on sales.

Succession planning

When company or private assets are bequeathed or transferred in the context of a gift to subsequent generations, the optimum tax structure of the entire process is of particular importance. High taxes can be incurred which can threaten the liquidity of the company and thus the continuity of the business.

VOTUM AG consults you in all matters pertaining to inheritance and gift taxes. In addition to the tax-related optimization of gift and successor regulations, we pay special attention to ensuring that any structure is the best for the client by engaging our affiliated legal firm, KMO Kestler & Partner.
