Business succession and exit planning

Our team of rural and business law experts provides specialised legal support tailored to New Zealand’s commercial, agricultural and rural sectors. 

Business succession planning

Planning for the future of your company is essential for business’s longevity and smooth operation, whether it’s to be succeeded by family, or through an employee share purchase scheme. Succession and exit planning depicts what happens to a business on retirement, incapacity, or sale of the company. Our legal expertise covers corporate, property, and commercial law to ensure we can cover as many steps of the planning process as possible while minimising the risk and protecting the owners legal and financial interests. If an employee share purchase scheme is something a company wants to include as a tool for the succession plan, our experts can provide tailored legal advice while ensuring that the arrangement aligns with the exit plan.
