What does corporate law cover in the UK?

  • Company formation: Registering a company with Companies House and drafting essential documents such as articles of association.
  • Share structures and capital: Issuing, transferring, or restructuring shares, and advising on shareholder rights.
  • Directors’ duties and governance: Ensuring directors act in the best interests of the company, comply with statutory obligations, and maintain accurate records.
  • Regulatory compliance: Meeting filing deadlines, maintaining proper accounting records, and adhering to corporate legislation (e.g., Companies Act 2006).
  • Restructuring and financing: Guiding businesses on equity and debt financing, mergers, or buyouts to achieve growth or manage challenges.

How can a solicitor help with corporate law, and what does it cost?

A corporate solicitor can:

  • Provide strategic advice: Suggesting optimal company structures, share allocations, and compliance measures to protect the business and its stakeholders.
  • Draft and review legal documents: Crafting shareholders’ agreements, directors’ service contracts, and other key documents.
  • Manage corporate transactions: Handling due diligence, negotiations, and documentation for sales, mergers, or investments.
  • Offer dispute resolution: Resolving shareholder conflicts or corporate governance disagreements through mediation, arbitration, or court if necessary.

Costs vary based on the complexity of the company’s structure and the extent of legal work required. Hourly rates typically range from £150 to £500, with fixed-fee arrangements sometimes offered for straightforward tasks like company formations. An initial consultation—often at a reduced rate or free—can help you understand potential fees, timelines, and strategies tailored to your corporate needs.
