Legal Advice

We can advise on the scheme and its associated documents including the advice and work in respect of any existing shareholding documentation and investor consents that may be required.

Settlement

It is a requirement of the scheme that a UK regulated solicitor permitted to receive and hold client money facilitate completion (Avery Law operates client accounts) – this will involve receiving and holding the completion monies to order from the third party investor(s) (or their solicitors) to be released to the company on execution of the convertible loan agreement and upon confirmation from the Future Fund.
