Company law solicitors
Company law solicitors, as their name suggests, have extensive knowledge of business law. All businesses should have access to legal representation when they need it. Since the last phase of the implementation of the Companies Act 2006 was completed on 1 October 2009 company law solicitors have become even more important. The Act makes many changes to how companies operate, and company law solicitors can help you interpret the Act in relation to your business.
Company law solicitors may give you advice include things like:
- Company formation
- Company reporting duties
- Company accounting duties
- Director's duties
- Meetings and voting
- Shareholder's rights
As no two businesses are the same, the legal skills your business may require will be unique. Company law solicitors tend to concentrate on either one aspect of business law, or a few closely related aspects. Good examples include tax and contract law. If you have a specific legal requirement, try and match this to the right company law solicitor in your area.
Before you hire a firm of company law solicitors it is always a good idea to check their credentials. The Law Society of England and Wales must accredit all solicitors working in England and Wales.
