Corporate

Corporate Services

We structure business arrangements through limited liability partnerships, joint ventures and shareholder agreements and have extensive experience advising overseas clients on their UK business activities.

We also advise public and private companies on the content of their annual report and on corporate governance issues.

Mergers and Acquisitions

The main part of our work is the sale and purchase of private companies and businesses.

We are experienced at conducting due diligence exercises and are supported by employment, banking, construction and property specialists from within the firm and specialist tax, pensions and IP advice from well-known professional firms.

This work often involves foreign elements and our contacts in most of the major jurisdictions assist us where this is required.

We act for venture capital investors and high net worth individuals on early stage and follow on investments mainly in the technology, clean tech and biotech sectors. We also act for companies raising finance and can introduce management teams to sources of equity funding.

Intellectual Property

Brand protection is one of the most important issues facing businesses today. We regularly advise on the registration or transfer of trademarks in the United Kingdom, Europe and around the world.

We can deal with trademark and patent issues in the context of our mergers and acquisitions work or our technology investment work. We are familiar with technology transfer agreements and the issues arising on the licensing of intellectual property.

Our expertise also extends to the copyright issues that arise in connection with the creation of bespoke software.
