Our corporate lawyers advise clients on a wide range of complex and high-value matters, including:
✓ Mergers, acquisitions, and business disposals – from SME sales to complex, multi-million-pound transactions
✓ Private equity transactions, management buyouts (MBOs), and group restructures
✓ Shareholder agreements, joint ventures, and corporate governance
✓ Due diligence reporting and legal risk management for buyers and sellers
✓ Investment rounds and funding structures, including EIS/SEIS compliance
✓ Employee share schemes, EMI options, and founder incentive structures
✓ Commercial contracts, trading terms, and strategic partnerships
✓ Dispute resolution between shareholders, directors, and stakeholders
At Rubric Law, we are known for the quality and commerciality of our advice – but what truly sets us apart is our proven ability to deliver complex, high-value M&A transactions with pace, clarity, and precision.
Our experienced corporate lawyers act for business owners, acquirers, private equity firms, and corporate groups across the full deal lifecycle. From heads of terms through to due diligence, negotiation, and post-completion matters, we provide commercially intelligent legal support at every step. We frequently lead on multi-million-pound transactions, often involving complex structuring, cross-border elements, and high-stakes shareholder negotiations.
We understand that no two deals are the same. Our team brings a proactive and pragmatic approach to each transaction, identifying legal risks early and navigating them with minimal disruption. Clients value our ability to cut through legal jargon, negotiate firmly, and deliver transactions that achieve real business outcomes. We don’t just advise – we help shape deals strategically.
Outside of M&A, our corporate lawyers support clients with the key structural, governance, and growth-related matters that underpin long-term success. We regularly advise on shareholder agreements, joint ventures, corporate restructures, and board-level issues, tailoring our advice to each client’s commercial context.
We also support fast-growth and investor-backed businesses through successive investment rounds, providing legal guidance on term sheets, subscription agreements, investor protections, and funding compliance. For companies seeking to retain and motivate top talent, we implement EMI schemes and other share-based incentives.
Rubric Law is a full-service firm, which means our clients also benefit from seamless access to legal support across employment, commercial, and real estate matters. But it is in the transactional space – particularly within M&A – that our reputation as expert corporate lawyers is best demonstrated. Whether you’re selling your business, acquiring a competitor, or seeking investment, we have the experience and insight to help you move forward with confidence.
