Setting Up a Business: Thames Valley and M3 Corridor Expert Legal Advice

We can guide you where you are setting up in business alone, either as a sole trader or through a limited liability company. We can also provide advice where you are in business with others, operating through a traditional partnership, or a limited liability partnership or company. Whatever your business structure, the expert solicitors in Clifton Ingram’s corporate and commercial department can assist. Our company and commercial solicitors can advise you on:

  • The pros and cons of the choice of various business structures in relation to your individual circumstances;
  • Incorporating and registering with Customs and Companies House, where necessary;
  • Limiting your liability for claims made against you by business creditors;
  • The commercial advantages to you of using a separate corporate entity to own the business assets;
  • Intellectual property rights issues, where these are relevant depending on the nature of your business; and
  • Holding and maintaining accurate administrative records.

If you decide to incorporate your business, we can help you form a company and can advise you on:

  • The issue of shares;
  • Drawing up the constitution of the company; and
  • The appointment of its directors and any other officers.
