Mergers, acquisitions, and foreign investment support

About VV International

M&A and foreign investment counsel

VV International advises inbound investors and Polish sellers on mergers, acquisitions, and foreign direct investment matters that require Polish-law precision inside a global deal timeline. Based in Warsaw, we structure SPAs, manage diligence streams, and navigate filings that can decide whether a long-stop date survives.

FDI and M&A work is detail work: merger control thresholds, sector permits, foreign investment screening where applicable, and corporate approvals that must land before funds flow. VV International keeps those Polish workstreams visible to international deal counsel so surprises appear in weeks one and two—not at signing.

Post-closing, we support integration issues that legal teams often inherit: unfinished assignments, employee transfers linked to asset deals, and clean-up of representations that become indemnity claims. Documentation remains bilingual when investor boards require English packs.

We do not claim every deal will clear regulators on a fixed date. We map requirements early, document assumptions, and give buyers and sellers a calendar they can manage.

Clients working with our team receive written scoping before substantive work begins, including assumptions about counterparties, timelines, and documents you will provide. That habit keeps budgets predictable and reduces misunderstandings when third parties move slower than planned. We revisit scope if the matter expands, rather than silently absorbing unbounded work.

We invest in orderly files: chronological correspondence indexes, decision logs for board matters, and closing sets that a future counsel or auditor can follow without oral history. Good hygiene lowers cost on the next transaction and reduces the chance that an important condition or covenant is overlooked under time pressure.

VV International maps FDI screening and competition thresholds in the first fortnight so long-stop dates reflect Polish authority lead times rather than optimistic assumptions.

Post-closing, we run assignment and change-of-control notice programmes so integration teams inherit a clean contractual landscape.

Every matter file includes a short open-points list with owners and dates so progress remains visible when counterparties move slowly or when a colleague joins mid-engagement. Advisors remain reachable during agreed business hours for clarifying questions on open drafts, so commercial teams are not left waiting while counterparties press for signatures. Written summaries after key calls keep stakeholders aligned without relying on memory alone.

Clear engagement letters state assumptions, exclusions, and reporting cadence up front. Clients receive concise status notes after material milestones so boards and managers can decide without decoding long email threads. Where tax, technical, or foreign-law input is required, we coordinate with your chosen specialists rather than overstating our remit.
