Protecting your business is crucial.

To navigate challenges, you often need
a contract between company owners.

Here are 10 points you should consider when
putting a Shareholders’ Agreement in place:

1 - How will the company operate?
2 - How will the directors be appointed?
3 - What will the process be when an owner wants to exit the company?
4 - What happens if an owner leaves on bad terms?
5 - What will the process be to deal with disputes?
6 - What will the management structure of the company look like?
7 - What happens if the company expands or mergers?
8 - What protections will be in place for minority owners?
9 - How will new or additional owners be introduced to the company?
10 - What happens when an owner passes away?”

Establishing a clear process for owners is vital for
the protection & sustainability of a company.

With a private contractual agreement, the owners can
navigate changes, disputes & developments
(without the added stress).

Some separated couples never talk again.

But, not all the heartbreak comes straight away.

Over 26 years ago, divorce was illegal in Ireland.

Married couples could separate (without applying to the Court).

Today, that can impact the distribution of your assets.

We’ve helped clients navigate this scenario on many occasions.

Without legal expertise, the process can be intimidating…

When amending your Will, we can help you:

- Determine the entitlement of your estate.
- Resolve the legal process efficiently &
- Avoid potential issues down the road.
