Corporate & Company

We primarily advise individual investors and entrepreneurs, SMEs and corporations. We also work with specialist colleagues in our Commercial Property, Litigation and Dispute Resolution, and Employment teams where appropriate, to tailor our approach.

We can advise on a wide range of company and commercial law matters, including:

• Start-ups – business structure, company formation, shareholder and partnership agreements, terms and conditions, acquiring leasehold or freehold premises
• Commercial contracts – agency, distribution and franchise agreements, joint venture and partnership agreements, sales of goods and services, licensing
• Company law – director’s powers and duties, shareholder issues, company re-organisation and amendments to Articles of Association
• Acquisitions and disposals – due diligence, drafting heads of agreement, employment issues, intelligent property and competition law
