Lifecycle and Succession Planning

Comprehensive planning from business idea inception to the potential exit strategy.

Moving on from the business is a very difficult task. This is especially true in a family business with all the things that need to be considered outside of the business. Achieving a result that is both rewarding and pleasing is often the desired outcome, so that when you look back there are few regrets (if any).

We have helped many businesses transition to new ownership, whether it’s moving the business to a new generation, management buy outs or employee ownership. Equally, we have helped businesses deal with all the issues and forced changes caused by death or illness, including dealing with the family issues and ambitions.

We will help you:

  • Find a route that is a good one for you and those around you.
  • Help you make realistic assessments of the options.
  • Ensure you have in place the agreements, insurances and wills to cover the future.
  • Put in place the definitions of roles and responsibilities that are needed.
  • Guide you through the process of change and upheaval.
