FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Barraj Legal Introduces Comprehensive Business Formation & Shareholder Agreements Service

Empowering Startups and Entrepreneurs to Build Strong, Legally-Sound Foundations

London, UK - October 21, 2024 - Barraj Legal, a leading law firm specializing in business law and corporate governance, is pleased to announce the launch of its new Business Formation & Shareholder Agreements service. This offering is designed to support startups, entrepreneurs, and small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) in building strong, legally-compliant foundations from day one.

As new businesses navigate the complexities of incorporation and growth, the importance of having clear shareholder agreements in place cannot be overstated. Barraj Legal’s new service helps companies establish clear, legally binding agreements among founders, ensuring that ownership rights, responsibilities, decision-making processes, and exit strategies are well-defined and protected.

Ensuring Business Success with Strong Shareholder Agreements

A shareholder agreement is a critical component for any business with multiple owners, safeguarding the long-term interests of the company and its stakeholders. Without these agreements, companies are exposed to potential disputes over decision-making, profit distribution, and ownership transfers, all of which can be costly and disruptive.

“Understand that early-stage businesses face enough challenges without the added stress of legal disputes,” said Rhys Johns, Barrister at Barraj Legal. “The new Business Formation & Shareholder Agreements service provides businesses with the legal clarity they need, allowing founders to focus on growth while knowing their rights and interests are protected.”

Key Features of Barraj Legal’s Business Formation & Shareholder Agreements Service:

Customised Shareholder Agreements: Tailored to fit the unique needs of each business, covering ownership structure, profit-sharing, decision-making, and exit strategies.
