Employee Disputes

We are happy to advise on any aspect of employee disputes. With the amount of legislation and regulation, why waste your time and money attempting to deal with such issues, when it can be far more time and cost efficient to instruct us to protect your position and take the emotion out of the situation?

Shareholders Agreements

It is good practice to have a contract between shareholders that records the basis upon which they own and control the company. This is a private, confidential document that can deal with any number of issues, such as the transfer of shares and whether these should first be offered to existing shareholders, or where the shareholder is also an employee, what restrictions should apply if he were to leave the company.

This can be avoid costly litigation and acrimony in the future and is likely to be a small but very wise investment at the outset of a business relationship.

Business Sales/Purchases

Whether a sole trader selling to a PLC, or a partner wishing to buyout another, all aspects of a business sale or purchase have legal implications. Ensure your interests are protected by instructing us. Our IT efficiency and direct contact with clients ensures that unnecessary delays and excessive costing are not part of the deal.

Debt Recovery

Bad and late payers can cripple any business. Small to medium size businesses are most susceptible. Taking several simple steps can improve cash flow and the buoyancy of your operation. We can audit your existing system, and maximise effectiveness. We are also experts in litigation and where necessary, the enforcement of Judgments.

Terms of Trading

Often it is only when something goes wrong, that terms of business are properly considered. Avoid the issue and instruct us to draft your terms or review existing terms. It is important that these documents reflect the reality of your way of doing business, and changes in practice as well as the law, mean that regular reviews are the best way to avoid costly mistakes.
