Legal Business Audit

 

It is critical to structure your business for success, and when a company experiences rapid growth, it can be tricky to stay on top of legal requirements and the documents that protect your business.

Just like the financial health is essential to the longevity of your business, so too is the legal health. Conducting a legal audit should be part of a routine ‘health’ check for your business to ensure compliance and minimise the risk for potential legal issues.

Sutcliffe Matson’s experienced and reliable team of commercial lawyers are here to work alongside your business accountants, managers and other key advisors to complete a legal audit that will bring to light any gaps in your company’s structure and management, policies, procedures and daily operations.

Our comprehensive audit will review legal aspects of your business, and provide advice on what you need to consider for your business including:

  • Terms of Trade

  • Supplier Agreements

  • Insurance

  • Leases

  • Intellectual Property

  • Health and Safety

  • Employment issues

  • Debt Recovery

  • Company formation, business structure and governance

  • Shareholders’ Agreements and Constitutions

  • Partnership Agreements

  • Succession Planning

  • Protecting your assets

Working together with you, we will identify and understand your objectives as a business owner, review and analyse the areas outlined above and if required, develop a tailored solution designed with your business interests in mind.

We pride ourselves on delivering practical and sound advice to our clients, and can offer further assistance relating to their business in the following matters:

  • Business Acquisitions & Sales

  • Company Formations

  • Partnerships
