Restructuring your organisation

Restructuring your organisation

When you started out to make a change in our community, it was all about the impact. Spending time and money on getting the best legal structure was way down the list of priorities – and rightly so. But as you have grown and your organisation has matured, you now need to balance your daily impact with good governance. The last thing you want now is the distraction of bad publicity associated with some regulatory non-compliance.

We will guide you through the process of upgrading your governance and compliance infrastructure. If necessary, we can also help you restructure your organisation to take advantage of new opportunities.

  • We'll listen carefully to understand what you want to achieve. Then we'll thoroughly explain our advice and step you through the documents. You can be sure you'll know the full consequences.
  • Our lawyers work as a team, so someone will always be available to answer your questions, or point you in the right direction. You will also benefit from a range of perspectives and experience.

  • We only do what we're good at. You can be confident that we know what we're doing and won't pass on the cost of our learning.
  • For advice and documents, we provide a fixed or capped quote so you don’t take price risk. If you're in a dispute, we'll map out the process and costs so you know what to expect.
  • We're not in this game for our egos. We're in it for a front row seat to witness your success.

We measure our success on how efficiently we have facilitated your objectives, enhanced your relationships, and reduced the level of stress for all involved.

Probate hasn’t been granted yet, and you’re not sure what you can and can’t do.
