Mergers and Acquisitions

Trust us to shape your successful deal

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are a great alternative to natural “organic” growth or the acquisition of specific new talent to make your business grow. We take the time to work with you, understand your goals and help you make tough decisions with confidence.

Our team has extensive experience and understands the opportunities available to you as well as the real-world challenges mergers and acquisitions create. We’re experts in advising and guiding both buyers and sellers through the M&A process, from the initial agreement of the sale terms to completion of the transaction.

Buying or selling a business is one of the biggest commercial decisions you can make so whether you’re looking for advice on a one-off M&A transaction, or about to embark on a buy-and-build strategy, our team is expertly placed to guide you through the whole, often complex process. Our agile, straightforward approach and clear, jargon-free direction always makes it quicker and easier to resolve confusing issues and make confident decisions.

Working closely with colleagues in our Commercial, Property, Employment and Private Wealth Teams (as required) and with your other advisers, we can navigate the many financial, legal and practical considerations arising during the course of a transaction, over what is often a very tight time scale.

Our clients range from start-ups and SMEs through to national PLC businesses across a wide range of sectors.  We have built long-standing relationships with many clients who have experienced considerable growth through mergers and acquisitions, often evolving from small beginnings to become significant players in their markets.
