Bespoke Constitution and Governance 

While standard ‘off-the-shelf’ incorporations suit some, many businesses require a more tailored approach. We assist in drafting bespoke Articles of Association and shareholders’ agreements that reflect the specific needs of your partners and investors. By defining decision-making powers, dividend policies, and dispute resolution mechanisms from the outset, we help you build a solid governance framework that prevents future conflict.

Comprehensive Tax Registration 

Once your company is formed, it enters the radar of HMRC, triggering immediate tax obligations. We handle all necessary registrations on your behalf, including Corporation Tax, PAYE for directors and employees, and VAT if applicable. Our proactive approach ensures that your new company is fully compliant with UK tax laws from day one, preventing the risk of penalties for missed notifications or late registrations.

Structuring Share Capital

Deciding on the allocation of shares is a crucial decision with long-term implications for control and taxation. We advise on the most appropriate share structures, including different classes of shares (such as alphabet shares) to allow for flexible dividend planning. This strategic advice ensures that ownership is distributed according to your wishes while optimising the tax efficiency of profit extraction for directors and shareholders.

Director Duties and Education 

Becoming a company director carries significant legal responsibilities and fiduciary duties. We provide an induction service for new directors, explaining your statutory obligations regarding record-keeping, health and safety, and financial reporting. By empowering you with this knowledge, we ensure you can lead your company with confidence, fully aware of the regulatory landscape in which you operate.
