Construction

To allow a family office to structure, manage and sustainably protect its assets, taking personal and family interests into account, the family office must be set up to suitably reflect these interests. The solutions for this can be versatile and complex; they often have an international context.

We offer comprehensive advice on all tax- and company-law-related questions within the scope of your wealth and enterprise succession planning, taking legal and fiscal effects of transition agreements within the scope of anticipated inheritance on the subsequent generations into account.
