Top 10 of 960 law firms for Spin Outs, Company Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

A spin-out in England covers creating a new company to commercialise ideas or assets held by an existing business, often built around university or research-derived technology. A solicitor helps structure the split, draft the transfer of IP and know‑how, and set up the new entity, its shareholding, and governance. They draft and negotiate IP assignment or licensing, employment agreements and TUPE transfers, and any funding or investor documents, ensuring regulatory and tax implications are managed. The work is shaped by corporate and IP rules, trustee or founder protections, and the needs of potential funders and customers.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A spin-out involves complex structures around IP transfer, stake allocation, and milestone-based funding. The solicitor details the IP assignment, transfer of staff, and option or share schemes, and coordinates with corporate filings, due diligence, and investor rounds. They ensure the new entity is properly regulated, with clear rights and protections for founders, investors, and the parent business.

All of the members of the Walker Foster team that I have dealt with were completely professional and supportive of my requirements. I was provided with sound advice and cannot recommend them highly enough.

We delt with Ash S. for our remortgage. Communication was very good (yep and how often can you say that about solicitors!!) He kept us updated throughout the process and ensured we completed on time. What more do you want, would recommend and will use again.

Austin BlackburnJasmine Peglar

Tagged solicitors Austin Blackburn and Jasmine Peglar

We recently engaged Nash & Co to assist with a company reorganisation for succession planning purposes. This marked our second time working with them in the past six months, and once again, they demonstrated professionalism throughout. The project was completed within the agreed timeframe and delivered on budget. Much of the work was expertly handled by Jasmine Peglar, a paralegal who provided strong support to Austin Blackburn. Nash & Co is an excellent firm, and we look forward to working with them on future projects.
