To further support you, we’ve curated various resources—including case studies, blogs, and insightful guides—covering each phase, from start-up to exit. Visit the section relevant to your business to see how we can confidently help you achieve your goals.
Starting your business
During the start-up phase , when your business is being launched, resources are often limited. This period primarily focuses on developing products and services while attracting your initial customer base. Our expert solicitors recognise that your attention is dedicated elsewhere, yet they understand the importance of protecting you from potential risks. They will ensure you have the necessary commercial and employment contracts to minimise risks and safeguard your investments, providing you with the reassurance needed. Without a solid legal foundation the growth of your business could be disrupted by unwanted legal challenges and issues.
Growing your business
As your business transitions into the growth stage , you will experience increasing revenue, an expanding customer base, and an enhanced market presence. This growth typically entails hiring new employees and establishing new business relationships. Collaborating with a business services specialist ensures that you fulfil your obligations as an employer and that your new partnerships are supported by contracts that protect your interests as your business evolves. With more contracts in place between suppliers, customers and employees your level of risk grows as well. Our role is to ensure that all your contracts protect you and your business as it grows. Continually monitoring the contracts and policies you have in place ensures your business has minimal risk.
Managing your challenges
Over time, businesses may face challenges and you need to begin problem solving, necessitating a restructure to maintain competitiveness. Your internal processes, operations, and strategies may require assessment and refinement to remain effective. Our business services solicitors can assist in this process by reviewing your obligations as an employer and helping you stay risk-free as you evolve your business. We know that in these times employee emotions can be high, we're here to give you confidence that your changes are as smooth as possible.
As well as needing to restructure your business you may find your company growth is disrupted by disputes, we're here to manage those disputes for you. This leaves you free to manage the running of the business with minimal disruption. We're skilled in dispute resolution and know that each dispute requires a different approach to find a solution. You can be confident that by working together we will resolve your business disputes.
Exiting your business
Eventually, the business may reach a point where ownership transfer is considered, whether to facilitate an exit or to capitalise on its success through new stakeholders. This significant decision involves numerous considerations. From start to finish, our solicitors will provide you with peace of mind, ensuring that every step of the process is handled with the utmost care and diligence.
