Corporate law – frequently asked questions

What does corporate law cover?

Company formation, shareholders’ agreements, share issues, board and ownership matters, and governance.

Why do we need a shareholders’ agreement?

It regulates ownership, decision-making, exit and what happens in a conflict – the single best protection against disputes that split companies.

Articles of association vs. shareholders’ agreement?

The articles are public and set the company’s basic rules; the shareholders’ agreement is private and regulates sensitive matters the law leaves open.

When should a startup get corporate legal help?

Ideally at formation and before taking on co-founders, investors or key employees.
