Your business plans
Form and structure a French company
Build a legal organisation suited to your business, funding and the people involved.
Set the foundations for your business
You may be starting a business, joining forces with others or creating a new company within a group. Initial choices should account for roles, contributions and future development. The practice helps you consider these issues and put the agreed structure in place.
How the practice can assist
- Assess possible company structures and their legal, tax and social security implications.
- Draft articles of association reflecting the company’s governance and decision-making arrangements.
- Organise contributions, shareholdings and, where useful, a shareholders’ agreement.
- Prepare documents and assist with incorporation formalities within the agreed scope.
How the engagement progresses
Understand the plans
Business activity, shareholders, funding, timing and relationships with other entities.
Design the structure
Discuss options, draft documents and coordinate relevant tax and social security considerations.
Put it in place
Finalise documents, organise signatures and formalities, and prepare for the first corporate decisions.
Developing your project from overseas? The engagement can be managed primarily by video call and email, in English, French or Turkish.
Discuss your situation
A business project, a transaction or a dispute?
An initial consultation helps clarify your needs and the next steps. You can also request guidance in English on other areas of French law.
