Owner Managed and Family Businesses
Our owner manager and family business group bring together lawyers across a variety of disciplines to provide advice unique to the family business and/or owner manager.
Family businesses are unique in the business model, often placing longevity and the value of the family as a whole (including those working outside the business and those not yet of working age) ahead of short term profit or risk taking.
We place the welfare of our clients, as a family group, as our highest priority for fulfilling our commitments and providing accurate and relevant information to facilitate informed choices.
Estate and wealth planning form an important part of our services to family businesses, including a family constitution which can include wider obligations than simply those on current existing shareholders and directors to consider the interests of other members or the wider family.
We can help with:
- Defining and planning succession and retirement
- Profit sharing issues
- Corporate structure and incorporation
- Employment
- Property acquisition and disposal
- Business sale and acquisition
- Regulatory issues
- Disputes
- Commercial debt recovery
- Inheritance tax and financial, investment and retirement advice
