Corporate

We have the largest and most experienced full service corporate team in the Thames Valley. Unlike many of our competitors, all of our Corporate partners have experience of international deals and they are all rated by the legal directories as experts in their specialist fields.

Our Corporate group handles the full range of corporate work (with the exception of insolvency and related work which is handled by the Corporate Recovery group).  

The group has special expertise in transactional work.  It handles the complete range of corporate transactions with particular strength in mid-market mergers and acquisitions where it regularly handles deals in the range of £5 million to £100 million in size.

A strong benchmark of the group’s performance is its combined deal value which is currently running at nearly £400 million a year.

Clients range from start-up businesses and overseas companies setting up in the UK and Europe, growing owner-managed businesses, to large multinationals, UK listed companies, banks and other institutions.

Banks, which remain one of the most informed purchasers of legal services have become one of the strongest supporters of our Corporate group.

In 2006 the group was appointed to the banking panel of The Royal Bank of Scotland, following recent appointments to panels for Bank of Ireland and Lloyds TSB Commercial Finance and a successful Barclays re-panelling (for the third time), and adding to existing panel appointments for Bank of Scotland, Clydesdale and Allied Irish Bank.

The group is now on more banking panels than any other Thames Valley law firm. The fact that the group has not lost a panelling exercise for more than five years makes it truly stand out.
