Practice Area
Corporate Law
Commercial legal support for start-ups, owner-managed companies and established businesses across the UK.
Overview
Good corporate advice is commercial first and legal second. We work to what your business is trying to achieve, and we flag the risks that genuinely matter rather than every theoretical one.
We help founders set a business up correctly from day one — structure, share capital, shareholder agreements and the contracts that underpin trading — and we stay involved as the company grows.
On transactions we handle due diligence, negotiation and documentation for share and asset sales, investments and reorganisations, keeping the deal moving to a realistic timetable.
Matters we handle
- Company formation and structuring
- Shareholder and partnership agreements
- Commercial contracts and terms of business
- Share and asset purchases and sales
- Investment and funding documentation
- Directors' duties and corporate governance
- Company restructuring and reorganisations
- Supplier, distribution and agency agreements
- Confidentiality and non-compete arrangements
- Shareholder and boardroom disputes
How we help
Commercial scoping
We start with the business objective and the deadline, then agree the legal work and a fee that fits it.
Documents that work
Clear agreements drafted for your operation, not recycled precedents that create problems later.
Ongoing support
Continued advice as the business grows — new contracts, new shareholders, new jurisdictions.
