Private Equity
Service overview: Private equity lawyers
- Private equity, a type of equity investment wherein institutional investors or family offices buy and restructure companies that are not publicly traded, can be complex and competitive. It typically targets businesses at a later stage than venture capital investment.
- Our private equity solicitors have specific industry sector expertise in a range of specialist areas, and we also have the knowledge and skills to be able to act for both companies and investors at any stage of investment.
- Our solicitors can help with making new investments, receiving investments, structuring transactions and deals and day-to-day management.
- We also have considerable expertise in debt finance which will often be involved in the investment, and can help you with specialist transactions such as acquisition finance and leveraged debt, and asset finance and asset-based lending.
- We also work extensively in venture capital, both for companies and investors: you may need legal advice across both areas.
