Advising the typical owner managed  business, through its life cycle of Start-up to Exit, will often require the  input of corporate finance services, at various important stages. We have  accordingly set up a specialist corporate services team to offer bespoke  services in this field, including:

As well as complying with all  legal requirements, our advice will be mindful of all tax and commercial  considerations. Experience and inside knowledge are the pre-requisites of good  corporate finance advice.  Where we do not have the in-house  expertise for a particular area of corporate finance, such as that required  from a licensed Insolvency Practitioner, our association within other professionals  allows us to contract in this specialist assistance from another member firm.  Our working relationships with local solicitors specialising  in corporate matters gives us further access to corporate finance expertise,  where it is required.Practical Examples of our Corporate  Finance Expertise
