Early stage businesses and start ups

With clients ranging from start-ups to listed plcs, we have a breadth of experience that can be a source of real competitive advantage for young businesses, from day one.

Our approach

We actively engage with our local community to provide support and mentoring to young businesses and use our partner network to open as many doors as we can for them.

Contrary to popular belief, lawyers don’t start charging from the moment a client walks through the door - at least we don’t.  If you’re planning to start a business, we’ll be happy to spend time getting to know you and agreeing what help you need before we look to charge a fee.

Our charges

After an initial consultation, we will agree what services you need and how much they will cost. Services that could come within a fixed price may include some or all of the following:

• incorporating companies (including community interest companies
• trading terms and conditions
• terms and conditions and privacy policies for websites
• shareholders’ agreements and articles of association
• employment contracts
• company secretarial and registered office services
• advice to licence, protect or register intellectual property.
