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.

Michelmores advises EIS Investors, EIS Funds and Entrepreneurs on all aspects of the EIS process. We can provide corporate, commercial, intellectual property, employment, regulatory, real estate and tax advice. Our Private Wealth team also has direct access to EIS investors.

With presence in London, Oxford, Cambridge, Singapore and Hong Kong (through its association with Karas So LLP), the firm services an international community of clients and provides advice in situations where the constraints of geography often do not apply.

The work the firm undertakes is cross-border, multi-jurisdictional and complex, spanning seven core practice areas: Corporate; Dispute Resolution; Employment; Impact; Innovation; Private; and Real Estate.

“The Venture Equity and Corporate Debt Lawyers”

We are lawyers who act for some of the leading names in the EIS/SEIS fund management industry, including active fund managers, leading crowdfunding platforms and fast growing companies. We cover primarily unquoted equity and debt fundraises and investments, which regularly involve the raising and deploying of EIS/SEIS-eligible capital. Our expertise covers the complex and interrelated corporate, regulatory and tax landscape in which our clients operate.

Our FCA-authorised vehicle, RW Blears Ventures, is also often involved in engagements where additional regulatory compliance services are relevant to a proposal.
