WLN member: ABADI & CO – LAW FIRM

About us:

At ABADI & CO., a close-knit law firm founded and based in Tel Aviv, our work begins with careful attention to what matters most to our clients. We advise Israeli and international clients on corporate, commercial, regulatory, and private client matters, acting in situations where legal, financial, and operational considerations are closely intertwined and where decisions carry material and lasting consequences for businesses and individuals alike. We operate through an integrated, multidisciplinary structure that reflects how legal issues arise in practice rather than along formal disciplinary boundaries.

Our M&A practice advises on domestic and cross-border transactions, including acquisitions, investments, and exits, often at critical inflection points in a business. We support clients from initial structuring and legal and commercial due diligence through negotiation, regulatory approvals, and completion, and advise on post-transaction integration matters, including employment, intellectual property, and governance. We act for companies, founders, investors, and management teams across technology, industrial, healthcare, aviation, energy, and professional-services sectors.

Our corporate and commercial practice supports companies throughout their lifecycle, from formation and early operations to mature-stage activities. We advise on domestic and cross-border commercial transactions, founders’ and shareholders’ agreements, investments, joint ventures, and strategic partnerships, and counsel boards of directors and senior management on governance, regulatory exposure, employment, competition, and operational matters. Clients span technology, manufacturing, aviation, logistics, energy, infrastructure, financial services, tourism, retail, and more.

We maintain a dedicated international corporate and commercial practice advising Israeli companies operating abroad and foreign companies active in Israel. Our work includes cross-border transactions, international commercial agreements, distribution and supply-chain structures, import and export arrangements, and ongoing multinational operations, with distinct experience in aviation, logistics, industrial manufacturing, chemicals, infrastructure, and global trade.

In privacy protection and information security, we advise organizations on data-protection compliance, cybersecurity preparedness, and regulatory exposure, particularly where operational continuity and regulatory scrutiny intersect. Our work includes developing privacy and compliance frameworks, transaction-related data issues, data-processing and information-sharing agreements, cyber-incident preparedness and response, and representation before regulators and courts. Clients span banking, insurance, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, aviation, retail, and technology.

Our litigation practice represents corporations, entrepreneurs, family businesses, and high-net-worth individuals in contractual disputes, corporate and shareholder conflicts, financial and banking disputes, fraud and economic tort claims, insolvency and restructuring matters, regulatory and administrative proceedings, and arbitration and mediation matters. We also handle class actions and sector-specific disputes across the technology and high-tech, financial services, energy and infrastructure, real estate, transportation and logistics, and regulated industries sectors.

We advise extensively on environmental law, climate regulation, and circular economy matters, hugely relevant to regulated and asset-heavy industries. Our work includes environmental compliance, permitting and impact assessments, management of environmental hazards, climate-related regulation, renewable-energy matters, and environmental disputes and enforcement proceedings. Clients operate across industrial, energy, infrastructure, real estate, venture capital, transportation, technology, and consumer-goods sectors.

In real estate, we act for developers, real estate companies, investors, business owners, and private clients on real estate matters in Israel and abroad. We handle sales and acquisitions, leasing, urban renewal and TAMA 38 projects, financing, and registrations. We have unique expertise in kibbutz transactions, intra-family transfers, and advising foreign residents on Israeli real estate transactions. We also advise on co-ownership agreements, represent developers, and handle cross-border real estate transactions.

Our high-tech, startups, and venture capital practices advise entrepreneurs, technology companies, investors, and funds on the formation, structuring, financing, and growth of innovative businesses. We also handle company formation and ownership structures, founders’ arrangements, early and growth stage financings, strategic investments, joint ventures, secondary transactions, exits, and more, acting for clients across high-tech, cyber, fintech, digital health, renewable energy, e-commerce, and smart industry sectors.

Our labor and employment practice supports employers on routine and sensitive workforce matters. We draft and review employment agreements and workplace policies, advise on hiring, discipline, and termination processes, represent clients in employment disputes and litigation, and support collective labor relations and negotiations. Our clients include high-tech companies, manufacturers, retailers, professional services firms, and public sector bodies.

Our regulatory practice represents and advises organizations operating within complex and evolving regulatory frameworks, helping clients engage constructively with authorities while maintaining operational certainty. We advise on representation before government authorities and regulators, administrative enforcement proceedings, compliance frameworks, tenders and public processes, and the analysis of proposed legislation and its impact on business activities. Our clients span healthcare, pharmaceutical, financial services, technology, import and export, and consumer-facing industries.

We represent individuals and families in wealth management and intergenerational transfer, combining legal structuring with an understanding of family dynamics and long-term planning needs. Our work includes wills, enduring powers of attorney, trusts, prenuptial and financial agreements, planning for family members with special needs, gift transactions, and tax-efficient asset-transfer structures.

Our accessibility practice advises organizations on meeting legal accessibility requirements across services, physical premises, and digital platforms. We work closely with management teams to draft and implement accessibility policies, develop compliance procedures, and deliver employee training. We provide ongoing regulatory guidance and represent clients in accessibility disputes. We frequently act for retailers, healthcare providers, technology companies, public institutions, industrial businesses, and professional services firms in these matters.

Our intellectual property practice counsels on the protection, management, and commercialization of trademarks, designs, and patents, with close attention to how intellectual property supports broader commercial objectives. We handle registrations and portfolio management, licensing and assignment agreements, international filing strategies, enforcement actions, and domain-name disputes, acting for clients in technology, software, consumer products, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, fashion, media, and creative industries.

We represent nonprofits, associations, and social-purpose organizations on incorporation, governance, regulatory compliance, funding and reporting obligations, employment matters, tenders, and representation before authorities and courts.

Our consumer protection practice advises businesses on managing regulatory risk across the customer lifecycle. We draft and review consumer contracts and website terms, advise on advertising and pricing practices, conduct risk assessments, and represent clients in regulatory proceedings and class actions across a range of consumer-facing industries.

Our mediation and conflict resolution practice guides corporations, family businesses, and high-net-worth individuals through sensitive, high-stakes commercial, organizational, cross-border, and private-wealth disputes, where discretion, judgment, and relationships matter as much as outcomes. We handle shareholder and partnership conflicts, contractual and corporate governance matters, workplace disputes, family business disputes, complex divorce and property separation, and substantial inheritance matters. We combine litigation and commercial insight with a settlement-driven approach, helping clients resolve conflict privately, preserve value, and move forward with clarity.
