We can help a broad range of clients, including corporations and company directors.

Our corporate and commercial practice includes advice and representation in relation to:

  • Contractual matters
  • Shareholder and partnership agreements and directors’ duties
  • Personal bankruptcy and business insolvency
  • Fraud claims and freezing injunctions

Where appropriate, our barristers also advise on wills, probate, and trusts, allowing us to provide joined-up advice on complex trust structures and business succession issues.

If you require assistance with a corporate or commercial matter, we can provide a full service or targeted support, depending on your needs. Our services include:
