Company Law - Revisited
Course level
Introductory
Delegates
This course will be of benefit to those who do not regularly practise much company law or are moving into this field for the first time. It is pitched at a practical level for non-specialist practitioners. This course will not separately consolidate changes introduced by the Companies Act 2006 but simply refers to those changes as and when necessary. For a comprehensive guide to the new Act please refer to the Companies Act 2006 course.
Overview
Clients expect their solicitors to be able to advise immediately on issues such as whether or not to incorporate; what their responsibilities as directors are; what incorporation documents and other continuing documentation are needed and what their liabilities are if the company becomes insolvent.
This course looks at these issues and provides a refresher on the key elements of company law.
Topics covered on this course will include
- Incorporation as a company or as a limited liability partnership
- The rights, duties and liabilities of directors
- The role of the company secretary
- The issuing of shares and share capital generally
- Selling a business to a company and bringing in outside investors
- Security documentation
- Insolvency and the liabilities of directors to insolvent companies
