Private Equity and Venture Capital Investment

Private equity can be an effective way for you to gain investment in your business – whether you are starting out, looking for an added capital injection or expanding  your business.  

It can cover the investment by a venture capitalist or relatively small investments made by third party individuals.

The documents needed for a private equity investment and a venture capital investment will be very similar.  As the documents are there to protect the investor’s interests, it is vital that you have the best possible legal support. 

Our corporate team can advise you on the best way to gain as many protections as possible, in the form of an investment or a shareholders’ agreements – which contain restrictions on how the company can run its business.
