Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between corporate law and commercial law?

Corporate law focuses on how businesses are formed, structured and managed, including company formations, shareholder agreements, restructures, mergers and acquisitions, and directors’ duties. Commercial law deals with the contracts and legal agreements that enable businesses to operate effectively, such as supplier agreements, terms and conditions, joint ventures and commercial contracts. At Oliver & Co Solicitors, we provide advice across both areas to help businesses protect their interests and achieve their commercial objectives.

Yes. Wherever possible, we offer transparent fixed-fee pricing for many of our corporate and commercial legal services. Where a matter is more complex or the scope cannot be determined at the outset, we’ll explain the likely costs and provide a clear estimate before any work begins, ensuring you have complete clarity throughout the process.

Absolutely. We support businesses at every stage of their journey, from start-ups and growing SMEs to established companies and large organisations. Whether you’re launching a new business, expanding, restructuring, protecting your commercial interests or preparing for a sale or acquisition, our experienced corporate and commercial solicitors can provide practical, tailored legal advice to support your goals.

We advise businesses across a wide range of sectors, including professional services, construction and engineering, IT and software development, retail and e-commerce, healthcare, education and manufacturing. Our advice is tailored to your industry, commercial objectives and specific legal requirements.
