How to start a business with our legal knowhow
You want independence. You’ve dreamed about it forever. Now the time is right, your business plan is taking shape and there’s a million Things on your Things To Do List.
Here’s where we can help.
Starting your own business
Naturally when you decide to go it alone or take the next steps toward business growth, you’ll want to do everything properly in order to give you the best possible chance.
That’s why now is the perfect time to get some great, knowledgeable legal advice about starting or expanding your business.
The last thing you need is for some overlooked legal requirement to reveal itself later and trip you up somehow, particularly if it was something a lawyer has seen many times...if only you’d have taken legal advice before you started!
At QualitySolicitors, our network of law firms can advise you on the legal implications of starting or expanding to make sure you’ve got all the bases covered.
Can you be sure you’ve considered all the legal implications?
It’s possible that our legal advice could make a real positive difference to how your company operates and grows.
For example, you’ve probably given some thought regarding whether you’ll trade as a limited company, partnership or sole trader. If you have, then you may know there are different ways of managing your trading income to legally minimise the tax you pay and even maximise the income you receive.
Additionally, do you have customer terms and conditions that will protect you from unnecessary losses? What kinds of employment laws are there if you want to employ staff? What health and safety considerations need to be made in your workplace?
Finding the right lawyer can ensure you make the right legal choices to maximise your revenue and minimise the risk of falling foul of any laws and regulations, in the short-, medium-, and long-term.
And the best part is, when you contact QualitySolicitors your first advice (to clarify how we can help) is free, and we can subsequently offer initial face-to-face consultancy for only £99 to get your legal advice started.

Starting a business
You want independence. You’ve dreamed about it forever. Now the time is right, your business plan is taking shape and there’s a million Things on your Things To Do List.
Here’s where we can help.
Company formation
When you launch a new company, it is the most exciting of times. Making sure the company is properly formed, or incorporated, is an important first step. At QualitySolicitors, we have helped many companies take this first step with confidence.
Finance
Running a business involves many disciplines. The most important, arguably, is management of the finances. QualitySolicitors helps business owners understand the necessary legal requirements. Practical advice put simply, leaving you to concentrate on what you do best - growing your business.
Joint ventures
Working with another company can be one way to grow or diversify your own business. A joint venture is like any commercial relationship. Having the appropriate legal agreements in place ensures both sides are clear on their role and responsibilities.
Partnership and shareholders agreements
Setting up a business requires some thought on the most appropriate legal structure. Whatever the agreement, QualitySolicitors ensures the rights of those involved are properly taken care of.
Patents and intellectual property
Protecting your idea is important to you. Making sure the law thinks so is important too. QualitySolicitors ensures your intellectual property is protected - your original ideas safeguarded as preciously as you created them.
Terms and conditions of business
When you carry out business with another company, it is important to be clear on what terms this is being done. Many companies leave terms and conditions out until it is too late - when a disagreement arises. QualitySolicitors will ensure you do business on terms that suit you.
