Foundations and Associations

Another focus of our law firm is the law of associations and foundations.

Foundations can be a suitable means of private and corporate succession. Together with our cooperation partner HLB Dr. Dienst & Partner, we advise on conceptual, tax, and legal issues, in particular with regard to the optimal use of all tax advantages of setting up a foundation as well as non-profit issues.
