Mergers & Acquisitions

Our services include advising on acquisitions, disposals, private equity transactions, joint ventures, and other investments and divestitures. We are happy to project manage the entire transaction, including valuations, strategic advice, negotiating terms, and assisting with the transaction implementation.
Management Consulting / Strategy
Niche, bespoke management consulting services to the c-suite from start-ups to large corporations.
Our focus is on assisting management in consolidating different pieces of specialist advice into a cogent strategic plan.
We also assist businesses more generally, providing other strategic assistance that may be required, where such advice does not fit within the traditional legal advisory or corporate finance mandate.
Shareholder Activism
Transactions often result in increased complexity, with concomitant increases in scrutiny and more recently, shareholder activism. Oversight by shareholders is at an all time high.
We are able to advise shareholders and companies in respect of legal and commercial strategies with the aim of enhancing stakeholder value, whilst ensuring enhanced governance and fiduciary oversight by boards.
