Kingsley Napley LLP is an internationally recognised London law firm with expert lawyers across 11 practice areas including corporate and commercial.

The corporate team’s expertise lies within advising on corporate transactions, banking and financing and a significant proportion of our clients are entrepreneurs or entrepreneurial in nature.  They specialise in investments in early stage and growth companies, often in the technology and media sectors and many of which take advantage of the SEIS and EIS schemes. They have particular experience of acting for companies raising funds: not only in terms of guiding them through the investment process, but also in resolving problems which may have arisen in earlier rounds, and also act for EIS funds, investor syndicates and individual investors.

The commercial team provide a commercial and value for money approach, assisting their clients in negotiating commercial contracts and dealing with data protection, intellectual property, compliance and other legal issues.

Marriott Harrison is a boutique corporate practice. The 12 strong partner team has extensive experience advising a variety of investor groups ranging from private equity and venture capital funds, other institutional investors, family offices, angels and high net worth individuals. This includes work for EIS investors, establishing EIS funds and representing the investees so the firm is familiar with these transactions both from the investor’s and the investee’s points of view. The firm also advises on M&A, financing and other transactions of a corporate nature.

MBM Commercial is a leading legal adviser to fast growing entrepreneurial companies and investors throughout the UK with offices in London and Edinburgh. We regularly go beyond the ‘legal documents’, introduce our client companies to investors and play an important part in helping to create an entrepreneurial ecosystem in which we see companies and investors creating growth and enjoying success. We represent many high growth companies which are quickly scaling, raising SEIS and EIS funding and playing a vital role in the development of the economy within the UK and beyond. We are also pleased to represent many investor groups ranging from VC funds, other institutional investors, family offices, business angel syndicates and super-angels. Being knowledgeable on SEIS and EIS is therefore an essential feature of the work that our corporate team undertakes. Our corporate team works hard on being the best project managers, committed to keeping deals on track and on budget. As is the case for many of our client companies, recruiting talented people has been the key to growing a strong team and reputation.
