Business Legal Advice & Services

Businesses come in all shapes and sizes. Some are, from a legal point of view, relatively straightforward to deal with. Others may involve complicated commercial property and taxation issues or involve employment, intellectual property or information technology matters.


When buying, selling or even starting a business, it is, therefore, important to have a lawyer whom you trust and have confidence in and who is prepared to work at the speed necessary to ensure that a transaction is completed within the time limitation. We expect that you will receive the same level of service from us.

Whether it is advising you as to what is the best way to structure a particular transaction or its implementation, we are there with you throughout the process.

We offer assistance and advice in the following areas:- 

  • Sale and purchase of a business as a going concern – whether the business premises is leasehold or freehold.

  • Disposal and acquisition of assets by a company, partnership or a sole trader.

  • Where you have a portfolio of properties, whether commercial or residential, and you require help to sell, expand or refinance your portfolio.
