Succession in Family Businesses

Pass your business on to the next generation. Without unnecessary conflict.

We help founders of Czech companies plan and implement the transfer of their businesses in a way that preserves both their legacy and family relationships.
Every family is different. That is why we listen first—and only then propose solutions.

generation of Czech entrepreneurs is now passing their companies on to their children.

What Founders Most Commonly Face

We deal with these situations on a regular basis. There are proven solutions for each of them.
1.
Fairness among children
One child wants to run the business, while the others do not. How can you ensure that no one feels sidelined—while the company continues to operate successfully?
2.
Preserving your legacy
You have spent decades building your business. It is only natural to want it to have a future without you and to continue carrying your name and values.
3.
Family harmony
Money and assets can divide even the closest families. Clear rules and open communication can help prevent this.

How We Help

We start by listening and understanding your situation. Then, together, we find a solution that works for your family.
1.
Confidential conversation
We meet with you in person and calmly discuss your situation, wishes, and concerns. No forms, no pressure.
2.
Analysis of family and asset structure
We map out the structure of your business, family relationships, and the expectations of individual family members.
3.
Tailored solution design
We prepare several succession options—from gradual transfers, through holding structures, to the establishment of a trust.
4.
Implementation and ongoing support
We provide complete legal documentation and guide you through the entire process. We remain available even after the transfer is completed.
The most common mistake is postponing succession planning. Ideally, the process should begin three to five years before the planned transfer, allowing sufficient time for the gradual onboarding of the successor.
