mergers and acquisitions law

Rubric Law is recognised for the quality and commerciality of its advice in M&A law, acting for sellers, buyers, management teams, and investors across a wide range of transactions. As experienced mergers and acquisitions solicitors, we bring clarity and confidence to what are often fast-moving and high-stakes deals.

We advise on both share and asset acquisitions, ensuring that the transaction structure aligns with commercial and tax objectives. Our team is adept at guiding clients through management buyouts (MBOs) and complex group restructures, whether to support growth, plan for exit, or realign business interests. We also advise on private equity transactions and work with founders and investors throughout the investment lifecycle, from early-stage funding to full or partial exits.

Our work frequently involves multi-million-pound transactions, where speed, accuracy, and strategic insight are critical. We are particularly well regarded for our ability to manage large and complicated deals, including those with layered financing, earn-outs, complex shareholder dynamics, or cross-border elements. Our legal due diligence is thorough, and we provide clients with clear assessments of legal risk, helping them make informed decisions.

As a full-service law firm, we are uniquely placed to deliver M&A transactions from start to finish. Our corporate lawyers work in close collaboration with our commercial, employment, and property teams to ensure that all aspects of the deal are handled seamlessly. Whether drafting bespoke shareholder agreements, reviewing key commercial contracts, handling employment liabilities, or overseeing the transfer of real estate, our integrated approach ensures nothing is missed.

We also assist with the negotiation of warranties, indemnities, and disclosure letters, providing strategic support throughout the transaction to protect our clients’ interests and manage potential exposure post-completion.

Clients come to Rubric not only for legal execution, but for strategic guidance, commercial insight, and hands-on deal management. Whether you are acquiring your first business or selling as part of a broader exit strategy, our M&A legal team has the expertise and commitment to help you move forward with confidence.
