Company & corporate law

Incorporating is easy. Structuring it well is what matters.

Registering a company takes days; fixing a badly designed structure takes years. We design the right company from day one — its governance, its compliance and its tax logic — for local partners and foreign investors alike.

Our approach

A company is a tool. It has to fit your goal.

Before we fill in any form we ask what the company is for: who invests, who decides, how capital comes in and out, and what happens if the partners disagree. The structure grows from those answers, not the other way round.

  • Entity type — we choose the vehicle that fits, not the most common one.
  • Ownership & control — we separate clearly who owns and who runs the business.
  • Inbound foreign capital — we structure so the investment enters and registers cleanly.
  • Shareholder agreements — we anticipate conflict on paper, not in court.
