Mergers & Acquisitions

Bär & Karrer is widely recognized as a leading mergers & acquisitions firm. We have extensive experience and expertise in dealing with complex domestic and cross-border transactions. We act on major deals as well as on smaller transactions. We advise our clients on the full range of corporate transactions, including acquisitions and divestments of privately owned companies, auctions, friendly and hostile takeovers, spin-offs, mergers, transaction finance, and restructurings.

Our mergers & acquisitions team works closely with specialists from other practice groups to resolve issues in areas such as tax, competition/antitrust, intellectual property, employment and banking law. Depending on the needs of our clients, we can rely on the assistance of any of our offices and, in cross-border transactions, cooperate seamlessly with lawyers from our extensive international network of leading law firms.

Our mergers & acquisitions practice covers a range of industries including industrial concerns, pharmaceutical companies, financial institutions, technology firms, and energy providers. We act for corporate buyers and sellers, private investors as well as private equity funds and their financial advisers.
