This work covers planning for the orderly transfer of a business during the proprietor’s life or after death, to protect continuity, value and jobs. It includes arranging shareholder or partnership structures, buy-sell provisions, trust-based succession, and associated tax planning within wills, trusts, and estate provisions. A solicitor in this area drafts and reviews deeds, shareholder agreements, and in-specie transfers, coordinates with accountants, and helps organise lasting powers of attorney and testamentary arrangements to secure a smooth handover. Practical steps often hinge on tax reliefs, business asset transfers, and anticipated future control of the enterprise.

Louise Harris

Tagged solicitor Louise Harris

When I needed some legal advice I reached out to Louise Harris at Baldwin and Robinson. Louise was very informative and honest with me and gave great advice. Even though her organisation could not help me with my situation she took the time to give me contact details of other solicitors that could help me.
