Seitz pursues a holistic and cross-practice approach when it comes to advising German corporations on small-cap deals, including distressed M&A and VC-related transactions, while matters routinely encompass employment, corporate, insolvency and tax aspects. Daniel Grewe (PE, VC and M&A transactions in the industrial sector) and Wolfgang Schüler (M&A and restructuring) jointly lead the team, which welcomed Constantin Goette (corporate and M&A) from Winheller in July 2024.
