New to company law? This webinar lays down the foundations of Shareholders Agreements and Company Constitutions for New Practitioners and Practitioners New to Company law

Navigating your way through company law as a new practitioner or a practitioner new to company law, can be a challenge.

This webinar looks at some of the important foundational elements in company law by working through a client fact scenario and considering the following company law elements:

  • Companies Act 1993
  • Company Constitutions
  • Shareholder Agreements

Our fictious fact scenario will work through a situation concerning a new client wishing to setup a company with another director and 3 shareholders. We will consider:

  • our client’s obligations under the Companies Act;
  • whether our client ought to have a company constitution and the type of things to think about when preparing it; and
  • whether our client ought to have shareholders agreement
  • we will go through issues to think about with our client in preparation for part 2 this 2-part webinar when we think about drafting the Company constitution and the shareholders agreement.

Don’t forget there will be an additional part 2 webinar in which we will go through the tips and tricks of drafting a company constitution and shareholders agreement.
