Director independence covers the recruitment and ongoing role of independent non‑executive directors in UK companies. A solicitor practising in this area helps ensure board independence, assess conflicts of interest, and advise on arrangements for appointment, removal and committees such as audit and remuneration. They draft or review board independence policies, advise on disclosures under the Companies Act 2006, and assist with governance reforms that bolster corporate accountability. They may also advise on shareholder rights and transparency in governance.
Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor
Independent directors provide checks on strategy and risk; a solicitor ensures appointments are properly governed and that independence is verifiable. They work with audit committees and shareholder groups to document constraints, complete necessary disclosures, and handle conflicts of interest in governance.
