At ARROWS, we help you safely manage and develop corporate structures, holding entities, and transactions of all kinds. We are among the leading Czech specialists in corporate law and M&A, providing practical solutions for issues that most companies eventually face—investor entry, reorganization, mergers, structuring relationships between partners, or preparing a Czech company for sale.

Why choose attorneys from ARROWS?

Thanks to years of experience in corporate law and M&A within the Czech Republic and abroad, we understand how firms actually operate—from simple structures to complex holdings, corporate groups, foreign ownership ties, or investor entries. We know the differences in legal regulations and the expectations of founders, management, and investors, enabling us to propose solutions that make sense in the real business world.

We design every structure setup, memorandum of association, shareholder agreement, or transaction document to minimize risks, prevent conflicts, and support the long-term growth of the firm. We do not approach matters academically—we focus on the impact on company management, asset protection, relationships between owners, and the stability of the entire group.

Thanks to the ARROWS International network, we manage to coordinate company formation, reorganizations, and transactions across multiple jurisdictions. We set up holding structures with regard to both Czech and foreign regulations, compliance, and future exit strategies. All of this with an emphasis on fast, understandable communication and clear recommendations without unnecessary legal jargon.

Do not let legal uncertainty hold back the development of your firm—connect with us for a non-binding introductory consultation and discover how we can help you establish a structure that is safe, functional, and ready for growth in the local market.

How We Work (4-Step Process)

1) Rapid Corporate Analysis

We evaluate the current setup of the firm, risks, weak points in the structure, and relationships between partners, and recommend the first steps. You will receive a clear proposal on what to adjust immediately and what can wait.

2) Proposal of a Safe and Functional Corporate Structure

Whether it concerns a holding, investor entry, reorganization, or preparation for the sale of a firm—we will propose a solution that is legally correct and simultaneously makes business sense.

3) Complete Legal Documentation

We prepare founding documents, shareholder agreements, general meeting minutes, transaction contracts, internal regulations, and corporate compliance protocols. Everything is drafted in language and style understood not only by lawyers but also by managers.

4) Implementation and Long-term Legal Support

We arrange filings in the Commercial Register, communication with Czech authorities, banks, investors, and foreign partners. We supervise to ensure the structure is functional in practice, not just "on paper."

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1) How long does a change of structure, reorganization, or transaction take? It depends on the scope of the project. Simple changes (e.g., change of executive director or partners) are resolved within a few days. Reorganization of a group or M&A transactions commonly take weeks to several months depending on the number of companies and the complexity of the structure. Our priority is not to prolong the process—we have prepared standards, procedures, and a team that works in parallel.

2) Can you handle complex property and ownership structures? Yes. We assist with the setup and restructuring of complex holdings, multi-level structures, foreign entities, family firms, and investment groups. We know how to combine legal, tax, and strategic perspectives so that the structure is safe, functional, and prepared for future exit or growth.

3) Do you also handle taxes? Yes—directly within ARROWS, we have tax advisors and collaborate with ex-Big4 specialists. We manage the tax implications of transactions, share transfers, asset transfers, cross-border changes, and holdings involving entities outside the Czech Republic. We propose solutions that make sense both legally and from a tax perspective.

4) Will you help with foreign structures and owners outside the EU? Yes. Thanks to the ARROWS International network, we work with foreign companies and owners from Europe, the USA, Asia, and Africa. We help with setting up shareholdings, asset transfers, reorganizations, and establishing entities outside the Czech Republic. We ensure communication with authorities and advisors in the given country.

5) I need advice on how to set up or change a holding—where do I start? A non-binding introductory consultation is sufficient. We will review the current structure, risks, weak points, and the owners' goals. Subsequently, you will receive a clear plan of steps that will give you legal certainty and a stable foundation for further growth.
