Our Services

Overview Can we help?

We’re business as usual other than meeting clients now only by phone or video link – usually Lifesize but can do Whatsapp or Facetime.

 

The legal services provided by our Corporate Department falls within three main areas:

We provide clear, straightforward, and practical advice on a range of corporate, commercial, and banking and finance legal issues that can arise for all sizes and sectors of businesses from sole traders and partnerships to large multi-corporate structures. We often act for owner/managers SMEs on all their corporate, commercial, and finance legal requirements including from the growth phase through to succession planning.

 

Our corporate team has the strength and depth to deal with all types of transactions including major sales and purchases, and investments, as well as specialist areas such as internet based businesses.  We assist businesses during all stages of the business life cycle, from set up, investment, and growth, through to expansion and succession and exit.

 

 

We have prepared a number of useful guides on various transactions. You can access some of them here:

We will help you achieve your aims in a practical no-nonsense way.  Our aim is to build a long-term relationship so we will be with you all the way, helping you to achieve your business goals.  We are approachable and will be an asset to your business, working closely with your other professional advisers, to help your business prosper and grow.

 

It’s also important for everyone that the cost of this support and advice is clear and agreed.  We will always agree a fee estimate for our work, whether big or small.  This way everyone is clear on the fees we will charge.

 

We do not focus on sectors as we have a diverse client base which includes businesses across all sectors including the cutting edge agricultural and land owning sector, software, internet based businesses, property, construction, professional practices, and healthcare.

 

If you would like to know about the type of transactions we are involved with then please see our recent Instructions list
