Portfolio Restructuring
Acquiring or disposing of a business is a significant strategic step, and we support clients through every stage of the process with clarity, precision, and commercial insight. Whether you are expanding through acquisition or preparing to sell part or all of your business, we provide guidance that protects value and ensures a smooth, well‑managed transaction.
We assist buyers and sellers with comprehensive legal due diligence, identifying risks, opportunities, and key commercial considerations early in the process. Our team drafts and negotiates the full suite of transaction documents, including heads of terms, sale and purchase agreements, disclosure letters, and ancillary contracts. Throughout, we focus on safeguarding your position while maintaining momentum toward completion.
Our approach is collaborative and pragmatic. We work closely with financial advisers, tax specialists, and internal stakeholders to ensure that the transaction structure aligns with your strategic objectives. From asset and share sales to group reorganisations and carve‑outs, we help you navigate complex issues with confidence and clarity.
Post‑completion, we support clients with transitional arrangements, integration planning, and ongoing obligations to ensure the transaction delivers its intended value. Whether you are entering the market for the first time or managing a sophisticated portfolio, our goal is to provide commercially grounded advice that enables you to act decisively and achieve successful outcomes.
