Company law asks for clear decisions, clean records and proper process. We explain fiduciary duties, draft board minutes and keep resolutions in a form that stands up when questions are raised.
This is where many firms slip. Do the basics well.
Business Legal Questions
Short answers for the issues owners ask about first.
Direct answers.
What is the difference between a sole trader and a limited company?
A limited company creates a separate legal structure with different filing duties, tax treatment and control rules. We explain the practical trade-offs before you choose.
Do I need a shareholder agreement if I have a co-founder?
Yes, if you want clear rules on decision-making, exits, deadlock and share transfers. It is easier to write that now than to fix it during a dispute.
Can you review my supplier contract?
Yes. We check liability, termination, payment, IP, privacy and service levels, then tell you what needs to change.
What are the risks of poor GDPR compliance?
The risks include complaints, regulatory attention, internal delay and damage to client trust. A clear process reduces all four.
