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.
