With regard to the services offered, we would close by stating that early involvement of an attorney and/or tax consultant is important above all with undertakings under fiscal law, as an untested approach or contract structure often leads to irreparable damage. Insofar as any disadvantages thus caused can be corrected at all, this is in most cases associated with substantial financial and time expenditure, which you would not have had, at least to that extent, had the transaction and structure been examined in advance.
