Incorporations, Purchases & Sales
Whether you are planning to incorporate an existing business or to start a new one, we can assist with the creation of your new limited company and the transfer of assets to the company. It is important to make the right start and we work with clients' accountants and other professional advisers to ensure that the company is set up to suit the client's requirements and to ensure that the company's funding is provided in the most suitable and tax efficient manner.
Small private or family companies are often chosen as an alternative to a partnership and can be a more appropriate and tax efficient way of conducting such businesses. However, as with many partnerships, it is very important to make appropriate arrangements to deal with issues such as managerial control, conflicts, retirement and succession. With companies these issues can be dealt with in a Shareholders Agreement and our experts can guide you through the issues and ensure that a suitable agreement is completed.
If you are a limited company and are planning to sell your business, it is essential that you obtain the right advice at the outset. The sale of a business can be done by the owners of the shares selling their shares in the company or by the company itself selling its business. The issues involved are complex and choosing the right method of sale can make a big difference to the 'bottom line'. Our experts can guide you through these complex issues and help you to make the right choice. Our experts have considerable experience of all types of sales from small sole trader businesses to large complex corporate sales.
If you are planning to purchase a business or a company, our experts can advise you as to the best way to do this and we will work closely with your accountants and other professional advisers to ensure that the acquisition is successful. We can also advise on joint ventures and other business arrangements such as franchises and licences.
