Consumer Contracts
At Duan & Duan UK LLP, we understand the pivotal role consumer contracts play in protecting your business and fostering client trust. Our experienced team crafts clear, compliant, and comprehensive contracts, staying ahead of regulatory changes and trends to mitigate potential risks.
Shareholders Agreements
A shareholders' agreement is a contract between the shareholders of a private company that outlines how they intend to manage the company and regulates each shareholder's roles and responsibilities. By defining and outlining the parties' responsibilities through a formal written contract, a shareholders' agreement helps to manage and minimise the risk of internal conflicts between management.
Having Duan & Duan UK LLP help draft a shareholders' agreement is a beneficial start to your business venture, as it encourages discussion between potential shareholders or investors, allowing them to identify any areas of differing expectations or potential concerns that may have otherwise been overlooked until a problem arises.
Matters that are typically dealt with in a shareholders' agreement include voting rights, transfer of shares, shareholders' rights to appoint directors, what happens if a shareholder leaves, dies, or becomes ill, dividend policy, valuing shares in the event of a transfer or sale, restrictive covenants, and minority shareholder protection.

If you require lawyers for a share purchase transaction, whether you are investing in a limited company or buying or selling the entire share capital of a business, Duan & Duan UK LLP is an ideal choice.
Our team has vast experience advising businesses of all sizes and types on share purchases. This experience allows us to quickly focus on the critical issues and strike the right balance between proportionate legal fees, speed, and ensuring the right deal and protections are in place for our clients.
Employment Contracts & Agreements
If you require employment law services, we can provide them to you in an individual capacity or to businesses, in both litigious and non-litigious circumstances. Our legal services cover a range of needs, from drafting and reviewing employment contracts to preparing and conducting Employment Tribunal proceedings.
