Partnership & Licensing Agreements
As a partnership ourselves we understand fully all the problems which can arise and have devised many practical solutions - tried and tested! We are experienced in dafting partnership agreements for many different types of business - although our particular expertise is with professional partnerships such as doctors, accountants and vets.

Partnerships without a partnership agreement leaves itself at considerable risk.

Contact Belinda Walkinshaw in St Albans.



Shareholder Agreements
When partners choose to operate their business as a limited company, it is vital that individual interests are protected by a shareholders agreements. These provide for such things as unrestricted majority voting, sale of shares to third parties, directorships, dividends and share valuation. By dealing with these matters at an early stage you may avoid a dispute later.

We can also advise on the different approaches available to protect shareholders.
