Top 10 of 4,052 law firms for Shareholder Agreements, Company & Commercial

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Shareholder agreements cover the private company context, setting out how shareholders relate to each other and to the company. They typically govern share ownership, pre-emption on new issues, transfer restrictions, deadlock resolution, dividend expectations, and exit arrangements. A solicitor drafts and negotiates the document, advises on enforceability, and helps structure governance like voting arrangements, board control, and ROFR/ROFO provisions to prevent disputes. The work often shapes long‑term relationships and protects minority and majority interests alike.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

A shareholder agreement locks in terms that prevent later disputes by detailing pre-emption rights, restrictions on share transfers, and mechanisms for resolving deadlock. It permits the solicitor to review or draft the contract with emphasis on enforceability and protections such as drag-along and piggy-back rights, share valuation, and exit triggers, backed by professional indemnity and regulatory accountability.

An exemplary service from a firm whose professionalism extends beyond knowledge and advice to an understanding of my needs. Tim has been first class in his handling of what has been a stressful and difficult time for me with my previous employers. The matter was dealt with swiftly and reached a successful outcome within a fee weeks. Highly recommended to all.

Celia Willcock

Tagged solicitor Celia Willcock

I have only high praise and recommendation for Celia and her team at Kingsfords. Throughout the process of selling our home, Celia and her team were always incredibly efficient - I would set reminders to follow-up for updates, only to receive the updates days before my scheduled reminder. The timely communication meant what could have been a stressful process was actually very straight-forward. They excel at attention to detail and forward planning. I am extremely grateful to Celia and her team for this.

Andy Herricks

Tagged solicitor Andy Herricks

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I instructed Andy to help put proper governance arrangements in place for a long-established family land-holding company. The work involved preparing a Shareholders' Agreement and advising on a number of complex issues around share transfers, succession, minority protection and company governance. Throughout the process, Andy was knowledgeable, responsive and patient in answering what was, at times, a long list of questions. He took the time to explain the legal principles behind the drafting, challenged historic practices where necessary, and helped us reach a practical solution that protects both the company and its shareholders. I particularly appreciated that he welcomed questions and provided clear explanations, enabling us to make informed decisions rather than simply accepting legal wording at face value. We're now in a much stronger governance position than when we started and have a Shareholders' Agreement that is tailored to our company and its future. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Andy and Clough & Willis for corporate and shareholder legal advice.
