LEGAL SUPPORT FOR BUSINESS (FIRM) IN GERMANY
Germany is one of the most attractive countries for doing business in Europe. Thanks to a stable economy, developed infrastructure, loyal legislation and support from the state, many entrepreneurs choose Germany to expand their business assets.
However, for a successful start and development of a business in this country, professional legal support is necessary.
The law firm “Prikhodko & Partners” offers comprehensive services for supporting business in Germany, helping clients avoid legal mistakes and ensure the stability of their activities.
Why is legal support for business in Germany important?
Doing business in Germany involves compliance with numerous legal regulations that regulate corporate, tax, labor and other aspects of a company’s activities.
Ignorance or non-compliance with these regulations can lead to serious financial losses, fines or even termination of business.
Legal support allows you to minimize risks, ensure legal security of your business and optimize its operation in accordance with the requirements of German law.
Main aspects of legal support for business in Germany
- Company registration
The first step to starting a business in Germany is registering a legal entity. Prikhodko & Partners lawyers help you choose the optimal organizational and legal form (GmbH, UG, AG, etc.), prepare the necessary documents and go through all stages of registration.
We also advise on the requirements for authorized capital, registration address and other aspects that affect successful registration.
For example, for a GmbH (Limited Liability Company) the minimum authorized capital is 25,000 euros, of which 12,500 euros must be paid up by the time of registration.
For a UG (general partnership), the minimum capital can be significantly lower, which makes this form popular among startups.
- Tax planning
The German tax system is quite complex, so it is important to plan your tax obligations correctly. Our lawyers help clients optimize their tax burden, choose the appropriate taxation system and ensure compliance with all tax obligations.
We also provide support during tax audits and help resolve disputes with tax authorities. For example, in Germany there is a corporate income tax (Körperschaftsteuer) of 15%, as well as a trade tax (Gewerbesteuer), which varies depending on the municipality.
- Labor law
Doing business in Germany involves hiring employees, which requires compliance with numerous labor law regulations. Our specialists help conclude employment contracts, develop internal regulations and ensure compliance with employee rights.
We also provide advice on dismissals, reductions in staff and other issues related to labor relations. It is important to note that Germany has strict regulations on employee protection, and violation of these regulations can lead to serious sanctions.
- Contract work
Successful business is impossible without clearly defined contractual relationships. Lawyers of “Prikhodko & Partners” help to conclude contracts with suppliers, clients, partners and other business participants.
We also provide support in case of violation of the terms of the contract and represent the interests of clients in court. For example, we can help to conclude contracts for supply, provision of services, distribution or franchising, taking into account the specifics of your business.
- Intellectual property
Intellectual property rights protection is an important aspect of doing business in Germany. Our lawyers help you register trademarks, patents and copyrights, and ensure their protection in case of infringement.
For example, if you are planning to enter the German market with a unique product or service, it is important to register your rights in advance to avoid copying or illegal use.
- Liquidation or reorganization of the company
In case of termination of activity or change of business structure, it is important to comply with legal regulations in order to avoid financial and legal consequences.
Our specialists provide full support for the processes of liquidation, merger or acquisition of companies. We help to correctly execute all documents, pay debts and close the company without legal risks.
