At ALEF QUAD, we help clients turn ambitious partnerships into well-structured, lasting joint ventures. Our team assists in the structuring and implementation of joint ventures across various sectors of the economy and at every stage of a joint venture’s lifecycle — from concept and negotiation to operation and, where necessary, dissolution.
Our work begins with careful pre-transaction advisory. We assess the legal and regulatory framework relevant to the proposed venture, advise on optimal structuring options, and identify potential constraints or licensing requirements. We guide clients in choosing the appropriate form of collaboration — whether through a corporate entity or a consortium contractual joint venture — and ensure the structure aligns with both commercial objectives and compliance obligations.
During the structuring and formation phase, we design governance arrangements, draft and negotiate joint venture and shareholders’ agreements, and establish decision-making and profit-distribution mechanisms. Our lawyers also conduct legal due diligence on prospective partners or contributed assets, ensuring that all risks are understood and managed before commitments are made.
Regulatory and compliance support remains at the core of our service. We assist in obtaining required approvals, ensuring compliance with foreign investment and sector-specific regulations, and addressing competition law issues.
We represent clients throughout complex negotiations, preparing and harmonizing the full set of joint venture documentation, including project, service, and management agreements. Once the joint venture is operational, we provide ongoing legal support on governance, internal policies, and corporate procedures, as well as advice on amendments or restructurings.
Our lawyers also help prevent and resolve disputes by establishing clear exit and deadlock resolution mechanisms, and when necessary, representing clients in negotiations or arbitration proceedings.
ALEF QUAD’s experience, precision, and understanding of large-scale collaborative projects allow clients to structure ventures that are both legally sound and commercially effective.
