Company Matters: Shareholder Agreements

As part of the Commercial team's experience in dealing with all commercial aspects of a business, we have developed particular skill in the drafting, reviewing and negotiation of shareholders' agreements, We can advise on what should be included in these agreements: for example, should there be minority protection or not, compulsory buy-outs (“Drag Along” and “Tag Along” provisions) how to deal with “dead-lock” situations (“Texas Shoot-out” or “Russian Roulette” provisions),general share rights, and all aspects of corporate management. We can deal with incorporations of existing businesses or the production of shareholders' agreements for existing limited companies or start-ups and reflect even the most complex arrangements in a clear and cogent manner.
