Our services
Corporate Governance
Corporate governance refers to the structures, processes and practices that determine how a company is directed and controlled. It encompasses the relationships among various stakeholders, such as shareholders, management, the board of directors, and other parties involved in the company. Effective corporate governance is crucial for maintaining investor confidence, fostering financial stability, and enhancing the company’s reputation.
Corporate Housekeeping
Corporate housekeeping refers to the administrative and regulatory tasks that a company undertakes to ensure compliance with legal, regulatory, and governance standards. It involves maintaining the necessary records and documentation to keep the organization in good standing with regulatory authorities and stakeholders.
ESG
ESG stands for “Environmental, Social, and Governance”. It is a set of criteria used to evaluate a company's operations and practices in these areas, and it is increasingly used by investors to assess potential financial performance and sustainability. Our advisers are happy to provide you with the latest insights of ESG-related questions.
Warranty & Indemnity Insurance
Warranty and Indemnity (W&I) insurance is a specialized type of insurance commonly used in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) transactions. It provides coverage for losses arising from breaches of the warranties and indemnities given by the sellers in a transaction. We are helping clients to assess whether it would be prudent to take out a W&I insurance in a certain transaction.
European Company Law
European company law aims to create a consistent legal environment to support the efficient functioning of the EU, to protect investors and other stakeholders, and promote economic growth and stability within the EU. CRPC Legal is specialised in European Company Law.
Private International Law
Private international law is important in all kind of situations with a cross-border element. Private international law is also known as conflict of laws, and is a branch of law that deals with cases where foreign elements are involved. It determines which legal system and which jurisdiction's law are applicable in disputes that cross international boundaries.
Anglo-Saxon Trust
A trust is a private contract pursuant to which a legal relationship between a settlor and a trustee is created. The trustee will act as custodian of certain assets in favour of one or more beneficiaries. Although the concept of the trust is not laid down in Dutch legislation, the trust may be recognised as such under Dutch law.
Legal Opinion
A legal opinion is a written document that provides an analysis and interpretation of a specific legal issue or question. Legal opinions are often requested by individuals, businesses, or organisations seeking guidance on the legal implications of a particular matter. Legal opinions can be used for a variety of purposes, such as making informed business decisions, assessing legal risks, resolving disputes, or complying with legal requirements.
Tax
Many cases require integrated legal and tax advice. CRPC Legal works together with reputable tax advisers to provide the best possible service.
Sanctions
Sanctions are punitive measures imposed by one country or group of countries on another country, organization, or individual. They are typically used as a tool to influence behaviour, enforce international laws, and maintain or restore international peace and security.
During the last couple of years, many sanctions entered into force. These sanctions can create uncertainty when doing business. Our sanctions specialists are happy to assist if you face any problems.
Asset Protection
Legal structures are often set up to help protect assets from personal liabilities or acts by others. The Dutch trust foundation (Stichting Administratiekantoor (STAK)) is often used for this purpose.
Second Opinion
Sometimes you need a second opinion. Just for clarification or to validate the legal advise provided by another lawyer. CRPC legal has extensive expertise in reviewing advice provided by other lawyers.
KYC
Institutions and advisers are subject to extensive KYC-requirements. We are happy to assist if you require any advice in this respect.
Legal Mergers, Division and Conversion
Companies can undergo various forms of restructurings, such as a legal merger, a legal division or a conversion. These restructuring processes can be complex and require careful planning and expertise to ensure compliance with various laws and regulations.
Ultimate Beneficial Owner
"UBO" stand for: "Ultimate Beneficial Owner". The term refers to the individual(s) who ultimately own or control a company or legal entity. Understanding and identifying UBOs is crucial for various reasons, including combating money laundering, terrorist financing, and ensuring transparency in financial transactions.
Joint Ventures
A joint venture (JV) is a business arrangement in which two or more parties come together to pool their resources for the purpose of accomplishing a specific task, project, or business activity. Each participant in a joint venture retains its own entity, while sharing the ownership, profits, losses, and control of the venture. Joint ventures can involve any type of business transaction and can be formed for a wide range of purposes, including entering new markets, developing new products, or sharing technological expertise.
Joint ventures usually require tailor-made provisions in agreements and corporate documents.
