§ 1Practice

Structure, agreements and transactions, all of them cross-border.

The practice covers the legal side of running a business in more than one country: how the group is structured, the agreements it enters into, and the transactions and investments that change it. Much of the work is unique cases that span several jurisdictions at once, where there is no template to follow and the solution has to be built.

Organisational structure

Designing and reorganising groups that span jurisdictions.

  • Holding and group structures across jurisdictions
  • Reorganisations, including moving a group under a new parent company
  • Ownership structures for companies and high-value assets
  • Shareholder arrangements, share classes and governance

Contracts and international agreements

Drafting and negotiating agreements between parties in different countries.

  • Developing practical deal structures
  • Shareholder, investment and joint venture agreements
  • Distribution, agency and licensing agreements
  • Service, consultancy and framework agreements
  • Governing law, jurisdiction and dispute resolution

M&A, due diligence and investments

All legal aspects of international M&A and cross-border investment.

  • Term sheets and letters of intent
  • Legal due diligence, buy side and sell side
  • Share and asset purchase agreements
  • Warranties, indemnities, earn-outs and closing
  • Cross-border investments and investor documentation
§ 2Approach

Direct, commercial and clearly priced.

One lawyer, directly

You deal with the lawyer doing the work, from the first call to the signed document. Nothing is handed down.

Scope and fee up front

Every matter starts with an agreed scope and an agreed fee basis, fixed where the work allows it. No surprises on the invoice.

Advice you can act on

Short documents, plain language, a recommendation rather than a list of options. Where local law needs a local lawyer, one is brought in and coordinated.
