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.

Mikhail helped me with the share sale of my business. He was very helpful in finalizing negations and arranging all the paperwork for efficient sale. I would highly recommend his expertise and proactive approach in sorting everything to customer satisfaction.
