Corporate

Our highly regarded corporate team provides clear, pragmatic and practical advice to businesses large and small from the UK and around the globe on the corporate transactions and the legal issues they face.

The Penningtons Manches Cooper corporate team advises businesses of all sizes as well as management teams, shareholders, investors and lenders. We guide our clients through the transaction process from initial start up to growth and development transactions, whether by equity or debt funding, acquisition or joint venture, reorganisation or restructuring, disposal via sale, listing or buyout and help them to achieve their goals in a calm, clear and pragmatic way.

Our clients cover a broad spectrum of industry sectors but are predominantly in the technology, private wealth, life sciences, property, retail and fashion sectors.

We also advise on all aspects of the governance and administration of companies, including directors’ duties, board and shareholder issues, constitutional and share capital issues and company secretarial services. Our team works closely with every client to gain a thorough understanding of their business and objectives. Where required, we involve our specialist colleagues in our other teams such as tax, intellectual property, real estate, social housing, employment, pensions and banking and finance to provide focused and expert advice.

A significant proportion of the work we do has an international element and we work with our international networks to ensure seamless delivery of service on cross-border projects.
