Corporate transactions / M&A

During the life cycle of a company, opportunities often arise to acquire another company or to become the subject of an acquisition itself. NORMA Advokater has extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions and provides strategic advice and effective project management throughout the transaction process.

Our M&A expertise covers all aspects of transactions, from initial strategic planning and due diligence to negotiations, contract drafting and deal finalisation. We understand the complex legal and business challenges that accompany M&A transactions and work to ensure smooth and successful transactions for our clients.

With expertise in most areas of business law, we can tailor our team to your specific needs and industry requirements. We have a deep understanding of different industries and can therefore provide you with the specialised advice required to navigate the unique environment in which your business operates.

We often work on cross-border projects and work closely with reputable international law firms in our global network. This collaboration enables us to handle complex transactions involving multiple jurisdictions and ensure compliance with all local laws and regulations.

Our M&A offering includes, among others:

• Mergers and acquisitions: we can help you buy or sell a business, whether it’s an entire company or a single line of business.
• Acquisitions of assets and liabilities: We handle the acquisition of specific assets or parts of a business.
• Carve-outs: we assist in spinning off business units to create value and increase focus on the core business.
• Restructurings: we advise on restructurings to optimise corporate structure and improve operational efficiency.
• Investment agreements: we draft and negotiate agreements that govern investments in companies.
• Joint Ventures: We help establish and structure joint business ventures.
• M&A insurance: we advise on insurance policies that protect against the risks of business acquisitions and disposals.

Through our Restructuring & bankruptcy team, we can also offer expertise in distressed M&A. In these situations, where the target company or one of the parties is in a financially distressed situation, we address specific challenges to minimise risk and optimise value.

Our goal is to create added value for our clients by offering solutions that are both legally sustainable and commercially favourable. We are proactive and committed to identifying and managing risks, and maximising the strategic benefits of each transaction.
