Buying/selling shares in a company

Buying shares in a company

When you are buying shares you will be taking on all the liabilities within the business and therefore it is important to investigate the company thoroughly beforehand. This process is known as due diligence.

You then need specialist documentation drawn up to protect your investment.

We can guide you through the process and draft the documentation to protect you and your investment.

Selling shares in a company

Whether you are selling your entire company or just a percentage of the shares you will need to enter into legal documentation and you will need to make sure that you are protected from any claims from a buyer.

We can guide you through the process and draft and/or negotiate the documentation to protect you and your investment.
