Your challenges
These are challenging times for the corporate market. The global recession, budgetary constraints and constantly changing regulations create a difficult climate in which to drive your business forward. At Mills & Reeve we work hard to understand your business, its priorities and demands. Secure in that knowledge, we will move swiftly and effectively to help you maximise opportunities and extinguish threats.
Achieving your ambitions
Whatever your corporate finance requirements, we can help. Working on a wide range of transactions with both public and private companies, large and small, has given us the knowledge, expertise and resource to provide you with cost effective support to achieve your business ambitions.
Whether you are looking at a listing, new funding rounds, mergers or acquisitions, restructuring, or the options for exit, we will provide prompt, straightforward and cost effective advice and support. We work closely with you and your team, taking ownership, where appropriate, of the difficult issues to provide you with solutions which are timely and within budget.
The strength you need
You will have the support of a team comprising 31 lawyers, including 9 partners, focusing on pure corporate and mergers and acquisitions work. This gives us the experience and capacity to manage a large number of transactions (more than 100 transactions in the last 12 months with an aggregate value in excess of £1.5 billion).
The team operates nationally as a cohesive team across our offices sharing knowledge, resource and expertise. We are supported by specialists in employment, IT, tax, intellectual property, real estate, banking and pensions to provide you with a comprehensive service.
