Mergers & Acquisitions

Whether you’re buying or selling a business, a company - or an interest in a company - it’s essential that you know the correct value of what’s at stake. After all, without the right processes in place it’s easy to give away assets or acquire liabilities that you didn’t know you had. And that can have an impact on your profitability for a long time to come.

If you’re involved in a merger or acquisition, our M&A lawyers will guide you through every aspect of business acquisition and other corporate transactions, helping you identify risks and opportunities so you can secure the best possible deal.

We offer expert advice on setting up joint ventures, preparing transaction documents, drafting non-binding offers and conducting due diligence. Our team ensures your corporate transactions are structured to protect your interests and maximise value, whether you're acquiring a new business, merging or planning a management buyout.
