Top 10 of 960 law firms for Community Interest Companies, Company Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

A Community Interest Company (CIC) is a special form of company created to benefit the community. It covers commercial activity carried out with a social purpose, subject to an asset lock and a community interest test. A solicitor will help set up the CIC, advise on its community purpose, draft the articles to include the asset lock and director duties, and handle registration with Companies House and oversight by the CIC Regulator. They may also assist with ongoing reporting and governance to protect the community focus of the entity.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor will advise on the requirements of the asset lock, ensure the company’s articles reflect a genuine community purpose, and guide the initial and ongoing governance, including director duties and reporting. They also prepare and file the necessary documentation with Companies House and interact with the Regulator of Community Interest Companies to maintain compliance and integrity of the CIC.

Rebecca McCann

Tagged solicitor Rebecca McCann

Rebecca managed my interests in a share sale / restructuring transaction to facilitate my partial exit from a limited company. This was a fairly complex transaction involving setting up a new holding company, the transfer of shares, the sale of shares and new service agreements for the directors. To be honest I wasn't looking forward to working through the legal process to make this transaction happen but Rebecca (and the team at Forbes) made it seem easy. I can honestly say it was a pleasure to work with them and I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Elinor Hind

Tagged solicitor Elinor Hind

I have been in the property business for over 30 years, and I have used various solicitor firms from London to Edinburgh. However I have never come across such professional, helpful, and efficient solicitors such as Anna and Elinor. They provided me with a wonderful service and were caring towards my needs. They re-wrote the articles of my company and went over and beyond to sort my issues out. They also did a PG certificate. These 2 ladies are the jewel in the crown of your firm and I would highly recommend them to my friends and family. If I was looking at employing solicitors myself, I wouldn't hesitate in giving these 2 ladies a job.

Steph Crowther

Tagged solicitor Steph Crowther

James and his team were very good and got my flat purchase done pretty quickly, only complaint really is as some of my deposit was a gift they wanted the gifters life story as well as a fee to process this, despite this already all being approved by my mortage provider. Other than this they were very good and responded to most queries I had within an hour or so and much better than other solicitors than my friends had used.

Melanie Finlay

Tagged solicitor Melanie Finlay

This was our third time with Sweeney Miller and again we found them incredibly helpful, this time with our flat purchase. David, Mel, Madison and team were all informative, diligent, persistent and professional throughout, despite the seller’s solicitor being less than helpful at times. We are happy to recommend this firm for conveyancing and are grateful for their support through a trying situation.
