Corporate Law Advisory

Corporate-law advisory is help in running a company within the framework of the Companies Act — director duties, board and general-meeting processes, related-party transactions, shareholder matters, and the filings that follow each decision.

The firm advises directors and management on getting these right, and on the corporate-law dimension of transactions and restructuring.

Corporate-law advisory covers the company-law decisions a business faces, including:

• Director duties, appointments, and board composition
• Board and general-meeting processes, resolutions, and minutes
• Related-party transactions and the approvals they need
• Shareholder agreements, share issues, and transfers
• Corporate governance and the compliance behind each decision
