Naumović & Partners provides comprehensive legal support in corporate matters and M&A transactions for domestic and international clients, with a special focus on technology companies, regulated sectors and complex contractual relationships.

What we do in corporate and M&A law
We support clients at every stage of the business cycle – from incorporating a company, through growth and acquisitions, to restructuring and exit. Our approach is pragmatic and results-oriented: each transaction is viewed through the lens of technology, intellectual property and regulatory risk.
Corporate law and company governance
We help founders, investors and management structure and run companies in a way that is legally sound, efficient and tailored to the industry in which they operate. We pay special attention to relationships between members, minority-holder rights and the long-term sustainability of the governance model.
- Incorporation and group structures (holdings, SPVs, joint ventures)
- Structural changes: mergers, demergers, transformations
- Members’ agreements, shareholders’ agreements, vesting mechanisms
- Corporate governance, supervisory and executive bodies, policies and internal rules
- Compliance with local regulations, stock exchange rules and regulators (where applicable)
M&A transactions
We guide clients through the entire M&A process – from the first indicative offer and structuring, through due diligence and negotiation of SPA/APA agreements, to closing and the post-closing phase. We have particular experience in tech M&A, where transaction value depends on software, data and the IP portfolio.
- Share deal and asset deal transactions (domestic and cross-border)
- Strategic partnerships, joint ventures and carve-out projects
- Preparation and analysis of term sheets, LOIs and SPA/APA agreements
- Coordination of due diligence processes (legal, IP, IT, regulatory)
- Earn-out, vendor loan, management incentive structures and similar mechanisms
- Post-closing support: implementation, employee transition, contract integration
Commercial contracts for day-to-day business
In addition to transactions, a significant part of our work involves preparing and negotiating commercial contracts that enable stable business growth. We understand our clients’ operational needs and aim for contracts that are practical, not just “on paper.”
- Distribution, agency, franchise and supply agreements
- Framework B2B agreements, general terms of business, SLAs
- Agreements with suppliers, partners and key clients
- Management and advisory agreements (management services, consulting
Restructuring, crisis and business exit
When a business model needs to change or wind down, we help clients find the most legally and economically reasonable solution – whether it involves reorganisation, sale of part of the business, or bankruptcy. The goal is to preserve value and control risk for founders, investors and creditors.
- Business restructuring and group reorganisations
- Liquidation, bankruptcy and asset sales
- Creditor and financial institution negotiations
- Preparation and execution of investor exits
Corporate & M&A in synergy with IT, IP and data
Unlike traditional corporate teams, our Corporate & M&A work has been connected to the IT, software and IP practice from the start. This allows us to recognize and address risks related to software, intellectual property, GDPR and AI regulation in a timely manner in transactions.
