Corporate governance is an integral component for any successful business

Rix & Kay’s corporate lawyers specialise in guiding businesses through large scale and complex corporate transactions with a strong emphasis on merger and acquisition. Ensuring our clients have access to specialist expertise that can guide effectively on corporate governance issues and provide full service corporate support when required, is therefore absolutely essential.

We know that corporate governance is an integral part and key component for any successful business. Being able to adapt and adopt corporate governance best practice, in a rapidly changing and increasingly complex area of law and regulation, are challenges we can help businesses to navigate.

Our corporate governance lawyers have the expertise and experience to support companies of all sizes, from start-ups to larger SMEs and mid-market companies, investors, boards of directors and committees and company secretaries.

With years of experience, we help companies to manage and present themselves with integrity, whilst adopting the right balance of risk management, accountability and sustainability.

Our work for clients includes developing corporate governance policies, improving shareholder communications, executive remuneration issues and addressing risk, and crisis management.

“Providing an invaluable service, the team is regarded for its specialist commercial advice as well as its deal making capacity. Kathryn Paisley, helms the practice, regularly advising clients on transactional issues and working closely with the Eurojuris network of international lawyers. Alan Zeal is also regarded for his experience in high value deals, as well as corporate restructuring, incentive arrangements, and director/employee equity agreements”.

“Kathryn Paisley is exceptional – she is expert, experienced and builds trusted relationships quickly which then leads to much more productive and quicker resolution of issues or establishing a point of view. I have worked on a number of deals with Kathryn, and she is simply superb”.

“Throughout the entire process of the sale of our company, Kathryn Paisley and Daniel Halls provided a wealth of knowledge. Both were always accessible and patient which helped to keep our stress levels down. With their expertise and guidance, the successful sale of our company was guaranteed”.

“The team at Rix & Kay are extremely personable. They genuinely care about our business and best interests. Nothing is too much trouble, and they are always happy to take the time to explain complex legal jargon and ensure we fully understand the detail. Compared to other firms we have engaged with, Rix & Kay value our business, not matter how large or small”.
