As a driving force in the field of legal and tax engineering, the Tax Department's lawyers are involved in forms of major restructuring transaction, including mergers, acquisitions, corporate reorganisations, leveraged buy-outs and other leveraged transactions.

In these areas, Gide Loyrette Nouel's tax advice covers both the preliminary stage (due diligence, taxation reviews, etc.) and the conception and implementation of the transaction, from a French and international point of view. These transactions are handled in close co-operation with the Firm's Mergers & Acquisitions Department to provide clients with advice covering all aspects of their transactions.

The extreme specialisation of the Tax Department's lawyers, involved in most major market transactions, enables them to offer clients the broad spectrum of highly technical skills and expertise required to cope with the diversity and complexity of restructuring transactions (group taxation, VAT, registration duty, international tax management, the application of international treaties and agreements, staff profit-sharing and incentive schemes, etc.). Their constant involvement in international transactions enables the Tax Department's lawyers to offer a unique service in legal and tax engineering combining all the aspects of French and international tax law necessary for the success of such transactions.
