We can help to plan, draft and put in place a suitable shareholder agreement for your business, so that everyone is clear and in agreement about how the company should trade and operate.
A shareholder agreement is a signed agreement between shareholders of a business. It governs the relationship the shareholders have with the company, outlines how the company should trade and operate and puts restrictions on how shareholders can deal with and dispose of their shares.
As experts in commercial law, our solicitors have extensive experience in drafting and advising on shareholders' agreements for companies of all sizes. We'll take the time to understand your business, and the people involved with it, before drafting a detailed document that accounts for all of your needs.
