Shareholder Agreement Lawyers Sydney | Biz Lawyers & Advisory

Drafting shareholder agreements: We work with you to understand the company, ownership structure and business objectives, then draft an agreement that clearly records the commercial deal between shareholders.
Shareholder rights and obligations: We address voting rights, reserved matters, director appointments, dividends, information rights, share transfers and dispute resolution mechanisms.
Capital contributions and financing: We help record agreed funding arrangements, capital calls, dilution issues and investor rights. Accounting, tax and valuation matters should be reviewed with the appropriate adviser.

Exit and buyout provisions: We assist with provisions for voluntary exits, forced transfers, death or incapacity, tag-along and drag-along rights, valuation mechanisms and completion steps.
Confidentiality and restraint clauses: We prepare clauses dealing with confidential information, business opportunities and post-exit restraints where appropriate for the company and shareholders.
Deadlock and dispute resolution: We draft processes for deadlocks, mediation, buy-sell mechanisms and escalation pathways so disputes can be managed with greater certainty.

Shareholder agreements often sit alongside business structure, commercial contract and commercial dispute issues. Contact us to discuss a shareholder agreement for your company.
