Management Buy-outs & Share Sale Agreements
We specialise in management buy outs (MBOs) and share sale & purchase agreements (SPAs). Our team consists of former solicitors and senior legal professionals with 30 + years of experience in corporate transactions.
Although we are not regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), we deliver work that meets the same high standards as top tier firms—only with greater transparency, faster turnaround, and a fraction of the cost.
Straight forward Pricing
Traditional firms can charge six figures for an Elm type MBO or share sale. Our fixed fee is £8,000 + VAT (plus disbursements), giving you premium service without hidden surprises.
