Support for family businesses
Family businesses account for over 75% of all firms in the UK and employ about 50% of the national workforce, yet less than a quarter survive to the second generation and only about one in seven makes it to the third generation. Family values and business rules often conflict, resulting in greater tensions than might exist in an equivalent non-family business. And yet, there is a genetic glue that holds family businesses together, even through the toughest of economic conditions.
We combine our legal and strategic expertise in this area with the financial and strategic expertise of nationally-renowned family business advisers to deliver wholistic solutions to the conflicts that arise in family businesses and to assist families in achieving their ambitions.
Our work includes:
- Shareholder dispute resolution
- Director dispute resolution
- Shareholder succession planning
- Management succession planning
- Mergers, acquisitions, sales and joint ventures
- Fundraising
Our family business podcast provides some thought-provoking discussion between Nigel Wallis and Howard Hackney of Howard Hackney LLP and further information can be found on our joint website The Family Business Adviser.
