Business Restructuring
Business restructuring can help organisations adapt to changing financial, operational or strategic circumstances. A restructuring may involve finance, ownership, capital or the wider corporate structure and requires careful legal planning.
We work with businesses and their advisers to create and implement restructuring arrangements that support the organisation's objectives while addressing the relevant legal requirements.
Areas of service
Business refinancing involves replacing or reorganising existing finance arrangements, often to improve terms, release capital or support future growth.
We review and negotiate relevant finance and security documentation and help coordinate the legal requirements of the refinancing transaction.
Distressed transactions involve the sale or acquisition of a business or assets where financial pressure or insolvency creates additional urgency and risk.
We provide commercially focused advice, carry out appropriate legal work within the available timeframe and help clients understand and manage the risks involved.
A capital reduction allows a company to reduce its share capital where the relevant legal requirements and procedures are satisfied.
We advise on the appropriate process, prepare the required corporate documentation and help ensure the transaction is implemented correctly.
Changes to a business's management or operations can create legal considerations involving governance, contracts, responsibilities and corporate structure.
We provide practical legal advice alongside the business's wider commercial planning, helping ensure proposed changes are implemented on a sound legal basis.
Creating new share classes allows a company to establish shares carrying different rights relating to voting, dividends, capital or other matters.
We advise on the proposed rights, review the company's constitutional documents and prepare the corporate documentation needed to implement the new structure.
Mergers combine businesses or corporate structures, while demergers separate activities, assets or ownership into distinct entities.
We advise on the legal structure and documentation required and work with the client's other advisers to help implement the transaction effectively.
A share buyback occurs when a company purchases its own shares from one or more shareholders, subject to applicable legal requirements.
