Explaining corporate law
Although often lumped together, corporate and commercial law are slightly different disciplines – with the former representing the branch of law related to companies and business structuring. From mergers and acquisitions (M&A) to private equity law and corporate disputes, the world of corporate law is vast and can get pretty complicated.
For the success of your business, you will want expert lawyers to take the wheel. Your lawyers need to be professional and trustworthy, conduct due diligence (the first stage of the M&A process), carefully prepare legal documents for court, protect your company from legal risks, design your company’s position on legal matters, and negotiate the best deals on your behalf.
Why might your business require a corporate lawyer?
Corporate lawyers support your growth as a business, taking the pressure off you and your leading execs to keep on top of important processes. They make sure that your company is always working within the law, streamlining the way you work and offering you expert legal advice as you work through huge decisions for your business.
You could use someone on hand to reliably process the normal day-to-day legal documents issued by your corporation. Maybe you need someone to ensure that all regulatory measures are compliant with national requirements, or someone to streamline and manage the M&A process. Whatever it is, we do it all.
If you own or represent a business or corporation, don’t leave the legal side of things to chance. You need reliable, hard-working, professional (and friendly) corporate solicitors to take the reins. That sounds like us.
There are seven stages to the growth cycle of a business, each with its own challenges and opportunities. We are here to help you navigate through them.
THIS IS HOW: 
Just because we understand the ins and outs of the legal game doesn’t mean you have to. Our business solicitors will never try to pull the wool over your eyes and baffle you with legal jargon.
Our Northern values guide us every day. From our warm relationships with clients to our grit and determination in the toughest cases and our sense of belonging in the local community, we’re simply and undeniably Northern.
We thrive on challenge and creative thinking, and that’s what wins us cases. The world of law is never still, so it takes a dynamic bunch to stay on the ball at all times. With our corporate lawyers, that’s exactly what you’ll get—and frankly, you’ll never look back once you see the results.
Changing the world is a noble path, but it doesn’t feel like it when you’re wrapped up in legal red tape. From tricky tax regulations to strict compliance rules, many non-profits stumble at the legal hurdles. But this leads to lost funding, damaged reputations, and even forced closures.
Turn these legal challenges into growth opportunities with corporate solicitors from Spencer Churchill. From tax exemption concerns to donation management, we’ll help guide you through all of your unique non-profit obstacles so you can focus on your mission.
Don’t find yourself in hot water without an ironclad contract. Our business solicitors know that a handshake is never enough when it comes to bulletproof commercial contracts. From partnerships to supplier agreements, seal every deal with confidence, knowing that every I is dotted and every T is crossed.
No more unclear terms or hidden clauses, leaving you exposed to risks, disputes, and financial losses. Create commercial contracts that protect your interests and propel your business ahead.
Our team has significant experience working with property investors and developers to deliver complex transactions that are typical of the real estate world. We are able to combine our expertise to navigate a range of specialist transactions, all the while working to deliver the best deals for you and your corporation.
You might have the business chops to form your own company, but you need a legal partner to get the wheels really spinning.
From choosing the right company structure to tackling regulations, many aspiring business owners like yourself soon become overwhelmed before the real fight for success even begins. And if you’re looking to expand internationally, like Dubai, expect that red tape to get really sticky.
Bypass the bureaucratic maze and hit the ground running with the help of our business solicitors in Manchester. With our expert team at your side, your business visions will become legally sound entities, with every base covered – no matter where you want to call home.
Corporate decisions are usually big, important, and financial.

From cash flow management services, financial performance analysis, operational changes and much more, our professional corporate lawyers are here to offer the advice you need to take your business growth to the next level.
Keeping up with company secretarial jobs can feel like a never-ending to-do list. From filing annual returns to maintaining statutory registers, the details (and the headaches) can pile up fast.

From board meetings to resolutions, we’ll make sure you’re always on top of things, so you never have to worry about making a costly mistake.
The nature of corporate law is that, when a transaction involves more than one company, disagreements and disputes can sometimes arise. That’s why corporate dispute resolution serves as such an integral part of our approach to corporate law. We work in your best interests. If you or an opposing disputant has a problem with an equity transfer, a merger or acquisition, or another reason entirely, we want to help.
If you need expert legal advice on every avenue of buying and selling your businesses assets, on maintaining a positive relationship with your shareholders, on fundraising or on corporate governance, then our expert corporate finance lawyers want to help. Having a tight control over corporate finance law allows your business to grow and thrive in other areas that matter – like business sales. If you or your business need sound legal advice from lawyers with extensive experience, the Spencer Churchill team wants to hear from you.

Raising your equity capital can be done through issuing shares, privately or publicly, something which is used to fund the growth of your corporation. Our friendly team of ECM lawyers are here to advise on capital reorganisations, demergers, and secondary fundraisings, all to help your corporation navigate the complicated world of ECMs and help your business to thrive.
