Company Formation
Setting a business up so that it does not have to be restructured in year two.
Decisions worth making early
Ownership structure, share classes, who is a director, how profits are taken, whether a holding company is sensible, and what happens if a founder leaves. These are cheap to decide at the start and expensive to unpick later.
We work through them with you and coordinate the incorporation, then get on with the parts that decide whether the business works: the plan, the forecast and the operating requirements.

Legal and tax
Company law, shareholder agreements and tax structuring require qualified legal and tax advice. We coordinate with your advisers, or introduce suitable ones, and do not provide that advice ourselves.
Start a confidential conversation
Whether you are preparing to sell, looking to acquire, raising capital or trying to lift the value of a business you already own, the first step is a short, confidential discussion about the situation.
