Shareholders Agreement

To avoid problems arising between shareholders at a later date it is prudent to set up a Shareholders Agreement which regulates the relationship between shareholders and provides the framework whereby issues can be resolved for example the transfer and transmission of shares on the incapacity, retirement, bankruptcy or death of a shareholder or Director, family arrangements or the issue of additional shares to finance growth. We can provide specialist services in setting up suitable Shareholders Agreements to cover these and other circumstances.

Directors Service Agreements

Directors are regarded as employees in respect of their work in the business and should receive a Statement of Terms and Conditions on Employment for that work like any other Employee. However their relationship with the company is more complex as it also includes their responsibilities and rights as a company Director we can advise you on suitable terms and draft Directors Service Agreements to meet your needs and situation.
