Company & Commercial Law

For our business clients we can offer advice and services on incorporating a Company, the management and administration of the Company’s affairs, Service Contracts and the liabilities of the Company and its Directors. We can handle takeovers and amalgamations and deal with the many complex issues arising from such transactions.

If incorporation as a Company is not appropriate to your circumstances, we can advise you on the alternative methods of trading, which are either as a Sole Trader as the Principal of a Business or as a Partner carrying on business together with others or as a Limited Liability Partnership.

We can also help in relation to the purchase of a Business including in particular a Retail Outlet, Restaurant, Takeaway, Public House, Hotel, Care Home, Petrol Station, MOT Testing Station and Dental Practice to mention just a few.

We can also advise you as to VAT on the Premises and the Business and can arrange for the supply of an EPC and in relation to any Licences that may be required to enable you to carry on the Business.

Whatever your business and its structure you may require advice on many topics including the negotiation and preparation of Contracts for the supply of goods and services, Franchise Agreements, Employment Contracts, methods of raising capital, protecting Trade Secret processes and inventions, Insurance and the purchase or leasing of Premises and Company formations.

We do not provide taxation advice to either Companies or individuals save in relation to VAT on properties where an Election has been made.
