We have years of experience assisting clients purchase and sell businesses in a variety of industries through a wide range of transactions and deal structures.

Companies, partnerships and other entities are commonly used for a number of commercial objectives including carrying on an active business, holding passive investment assets and holding an interest in another company or some other commercial activity. In some case, separate holding entities achieve an important purpose of separating the interests that various business partners have in one business.
Estate planning includes the process of thinking about how you want your property to be dealt with after you die or if you become incapacitated and then taking steps now to ensure your intentions will be followed. Estate planning also involves thinking about how you may structure your affairs now to achieve objectives during your lifetime such as tax efficient wealth distribution among family members and creditor protection.
Transferring a business from one generation to another, or to internal stakeholders, can involve a number of considerations and objectives not necessarily the same as with a sale to an unrelated third party. We understand the nuances and the possibility of varying objectives and aim to provide advice and direction for practical results.

Report
Thoroughly recommended. After moving away from a different firm with whom I became dissatisfied, Steve from Coyle White Devine Solicitors took over the case in mid proceedings, and with his practical, no-nonsense , straight talking and say it how it is approach he managed to get a very positive outcome for me. He was also there on hand whenever I needed advice or guidance, Thank you so much
