This area covers creating and growing new businesses, including university or research-driven spin-outs, and the commercial structuring of early ventures. A solicitor drafts and negotiates founders’ agreements, articles of association, option plans, and IP assignments, then helps with funding rounds, investor term sheets, and regulatory compliance. They also review contracts with suppliers, employees, and academic partners, advise on equity splits, and coordinate registrations and filings. The aim is to establish a clear, scalable framework for growth and future exit.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor handles: founder and shareholder agreements, IP transfer and protection, share schemes, funding documents, non-disclosure and collaboration agreements, employee and contractor contracts, and early governance structures. They navigate corporate formation, due diligence for investors, and potential regulatory issues in technology transfer, ensuring robust, defensible structures that support scaling and protect the client’s stake.

Max McGenityStephen Attree

Tagged solicitors Max McGenity and Stephen Attree

After 46 years working as a chartered surveyor and estate agent in Manchester, I made the decision to retire. I chose MLP Law, as my solicitor as I had been advised of their experience in selling businesses. They were AMAZING! I can't thank Stephen Attree and Max McGenity enough for their patience, support and help with what has been possibly the most stressful personal experience/ adventure of my life. They have been there for me every step of the way and worked alongside my agent Atomic- what a fantastic team. Thank you so much Stephen and Max Lawrence Copeland FRICS FNAEA
