Corporate Finance

If you are buying, selling or developing a business, planning for succession, or changing the structure to reduce tax liability, expert advice is crucial to ensure that you maximise financial efficiency and remain compliant with legislation.

Many of the clients we help to buy a business remain loyal clients and benefit from our ongoing support, because of our commitment to providing exceptional advice at a reasonable price.

We can assist your business with:

  • Company restructuring
  • Raising finance
  • Securing loans
  • Accessing government grants
  • Mergers and acquisitions
  • Management buy-ins and buy-outs
  • Valuing your business
  • Due diligence
  • Providing introductions to qualified insolvency advisers
  • Exit strategy planning

Deals and negotiations can be both time-consuming and complex to manage. We can act as the main point of contact on your behalf, dealing with external parties such as banks, law firms and HMRC, performing rigorous checks at all stages and protecting your interests.
