- Business Structures One size does not fit all, and a plain vanilla corporation is not always the right vehicle for a business undertaking. We have experience with all type of structures, from sole proprietorships, limited and unlimited liability corporations, general and limited partnerships, incorporated and unincorporated joint ventures. Each structure has specific pros and cons, and we assist in determining how these best mesh with your business needs and objectives.
- Shareholder Matters Business collaborators and co-owners need to understand the relationship among themselves. We help clients design these relationships either from the outset or re-configuring arrangements that are quick clicking, to help revive or resolve relationships that matter.
- Buying / Selling / M & A Starting and operating a business presents a unique set of demands, but buying and selling a business is a different set of challenges. Our team helps successful business owners grow, by acquisition, collaborate through mergers, or monetize their success through a divestiture. Ingenuity has the range of skills, experience and perspectives to help clients identify, negotiate and implement major business milestones.
- Governance Managing the internal operations and relationships in your business is key to ensuring that managers, investors, employees and other stakeholders deliver their full potential to your business, and that businesses meet the expectations of their stakeholders. Clear lines of authority, responsibility and accountability, along with realistic expectations, all set in place through well thought-out governance practices, ensures all the players know what is happening and who is responsible for getting you there. We help clients with shareholder agreements, management agreements, shareholder meetings and corporate governance materials to help them get things done efficiently and correctly.
- Reorganizations Sometimes things need a re-set. We assist clients who need to reorganize debt, corporate structures or shareholder affairs. Our team has established relationships with the insolvency bar and experienced tax structuring specialists that we work with to design and implement special arrangements to redress a range of corporate situations.
