Gaby Hardwicke is pleased to welcome consultant solicitor Alan Zeal to its Corporate Transactions and Commercial Contracts team in Eastbourne.
Strengthening our corporate commercial team
Alan brings more than 20 years’ experience in corporate and commercial matters. In that time, he has advised business owners, directors, shareholders and organisations across many sectors.
His appointment strengthens the firm’s services for businesses across Sussex, the South East and beyond.
Supporting business sales and acquisitions
Alan advises on business sales and acquisitions, including share sales, asset sales and management buy-outs. In addition, he advises on corporate structures and shareholder arrangements.
Over the years, he has worked with clients in sectors such as insurance, professional services, telecoms and construction. He supports sellers preparing for exit, as well as buyers pursuing growth through acquisition.
For many business owners, selling a company is a major commercial decision. Therefore, Alan helps clients prepare for sale, manage due diligence and negotiate transaction documents.
He also helps clients deal with practical issues before completion. This clear and commercial approach suits owner-managed businesses and growing companies.
Clear advice for growing businesses
Partner Mark Williams commented: “We are delighted to welcome Alan to the team. He brings strong experience in corporate transactions and commercial matters. Our clients will therefore value his practical advice, especially when they sell, acquire, restructure or plan for the next stage of their business.”
Alan advises clients on corporate transactions, commercial contracts, company law and shareholder agreements. In addition, he advises on joint ventures, management buy-outs and business succession planning.
Together, Alan’s experience and the firm’s established corporate commercial services support businesses at every stage. The team advises clients from formation and growth through to investment, acquisition, sale and succession.
