How much does the foundation cost?<\/p>\n<p>The notary will support you with his expertise right from the start of your company. He supports and advises you as an expert in drafting contracts for company acquisitions and questions of company succession.<\/p>\n<p>As a proven expert in company law, the notary will advise you on choosing a suitable legal form. Of course, he will also arrange for the entry in the register of associations.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5>Company foundation<\/h5>\n\t\t\t<p>The business idea is born. Now, you want to realize your dream and become an entrepreneur. One of the first and most essential questions when setting up a company is the appropriate legal form.<\/p>\n<p>Your notary will clarify all essential legal issues with you in a consultation, support you in choosing the name of your company (company), and arrange for entry into the commercial register.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5>Registered merchant (e.K.)<\/h5>\n\t\t\t<p>Operating a company as a merchant requires entry in the commercial register as a \"registered merchant\".<\/p>\n<p>The sole trader is personally liable for all his assets for claims arising from business operations. This company suits small and medium-sized companies whose business activities do not involve significant liability risks.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5>General partnership (OHG)<\/h5>\n\t\t\t<p>Several persons join for commercial cooperation in a general partnership (OHG).<\/p>\n<p>All partners are personally liable for all their private assets for claims arising from business operations. All partners must enter the OHG in the commercial register via the notary.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5>Limited partnership (KG)<\/h5>\n\t\t\t<p>The limited partnership (KG) is similar to the general partnership (OHG), the purpose of which is to operate a commercial enterprise under a joint name.<\/p>\n<p>The difference to the OHG is that, in addition to the personally liable partner (general partner), at least one partner is only liable to a limited extent to the amount of his liability contribution (limited partner).<\/p>\n<p>The KG is represented externally exclusively by the general partner(s). Limited partners have no authority to manage the company.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5>Limited liability companies and stock corporations<\/h5>\n\t\t\t<p>The GmbH is the most common form of company. The founders must jointly raise share capital of at least \u20ac 25,000. The advantage of the GmbH is that its liability is limited to the amount of the share capital.<\/p>\n<p>A public limited company's share capital of at least \u20ac 50,000 must be raised. The AG is rarely of practical significance for start-ups.<\/p>\n<p>However, it can be a sensible alternative to the other legal forms mentioned in individual cases. Your notary will always provide expert advice and suggest the best, most suitable company form.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5>Advice on company acquisitions<\/h5>\n\t\t\t<p>If you want to acquire a company or shares in a company, careful and forward-looking contract drafting is a top priority.<\/p>\n<p>To minimize risks and clarify essential questions, you should seek advice from your notary.<\/p>\n<p>In principle, there are two ways in which a company can be acquired. In the case of universal succession (\"asset deal\"), each asset of the company is acquired individually.<\/p>\n<p>In a \"share deal\", on the other hand, a stake is acquired in the company owner, which allows influence to be gained over the management of the company.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5>Advice on company succession<\/h5>\n\t\t\t<p>Like company start-ups, company successions must be regulated thoroughly and with foresight. Even if the time of a company's transfer is not fixed, a provision should not be missing.<\/p>\n<p>Your notary will support you in planning and implementing your company pension and succession plan. As an expert in this field, he will make you aware of all the issues that need to be settled.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\tOnline forms\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>Whether you require notarial advice or are looking for a notarization, you can enter all the necessary information directly into a customized online form and then send it to us securely in encrypted form.
