Corporate & Commercial
We advise upon corporate, corporate finance and commercial law issues for private companies, PLCs, individuals, partnerships and LLPs at all levels of development from SMEs to large listed companies.
Managing your business risk
Our clients tell us our advice is highly valued, especially when it comes to helping them steer through legal challenges, for example, when dealing with mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, private equity investments or IPOs.
We will support your organisation’s aspirations, growth and profitability by helping you overcome the legal obstacles in your path. Having watertight legal agreements can help you manage your business risk your way and can help you avoid costly exposure and disputes.
The depth of our experience means we can support you through varied and challenging transactions and transformational events commercially, whether in the UK or cross border, working seamlessly with other specialist teams in the firm or with leading specialists overseas, depending on your needs.
Any business change will give rise to legal risk. This might involve advising you on intellectual property rights, innovation or business outsourcing ranging from a straightforward distribution or supply agreement through to the most complex international licensing or business process outsourcing event.
We look to nurture ventures from start up to major flotation or complex cross border merger in many sectors, drawing on specialist experience where necessary in corporate governance, technology and data law, tax, competition, regulation, health and safety and environmental law.
