Corporate Law

Business and commerce are central to generating wealth and opportunity for the whole world. Without a legal framework, nobody could conduct business - but often business sees the law as getting in the way of enterprise. Of course, we cannot change that perception, but we can help individual businesses operate within the law and use it to protect their rights. We recognise that business clients want practical advice about how the law affects them and Hedleys solicitors aim to be pragmatic.

General Commercial

We have a wide experience of commerce and have helped provide the legal back-up for many types of commercial transactions. However, there are some particular areas in which we have had experience that is not commonplace for solicitors in our location.

Shipping

Hedleys do have experience in shipping cases and we have succeeded in litigation involving vessels at sea, both on an emergency or more routine basis. We appreciate that time and tide wait for no man!

Investment

In the present, rather sensitive and regulation-intensive business environment, we can assist with those aspects of investment transactions that require legal documents to be scrutinised or prepared. We do not provide investment advice, but we can assist the transactions you decide upon having taken such investment advice from others.

Company formation and administration

We can often form companies at short notice at relatively low cost and are able to deal with company secretarial obligations.
