Expertise
Our corporate practice supports entrepreneurs, growth companies, and established enterprises across the full business lifecycle under the Companies Act, 2017 and allied regulations. We advise on incorporation, governance, SECP compliance, shareholder arrangements, and complex transactions, aligning legal structure with strategy, funding, and risk.
We routinely draft and negotiate shareholder agreements, investment/subscription agreements, joint venture documentation, distribution and franchise contracts, technology and services agreements, and board/committee charters. For capital events, we manage due diligence, transaction structuring, and closing mechanics, coordinating seamlessly with financial and tax advisors.
On the contentious side, we represent clients in shareholder and boardroom disputes, oppression and mismanagement claims, director/officer liability matters, and schemes of arrangement/mergers before the Company Benches of the High Courts. We also engage with SECP on investigations, show-cause proceedings, and regulatory exemptions.
Our team has acted for high-value industrial and technology clients in strategic acquisitions, restructuring and corporate clean-ups—achieving regulatory clearances on compressed timelines, stabilising governance, and unlocking financing and market access.
