Legal advice should make a decision easier, not make the client feel like they need a law degree.
I explain the commercial consequence first. What is the risk? What can happen? What are our options? What would I be thinking about if this were my business?
The technical work happens behind the scenes. What you receive is clear, practical advice that allows you to act.

Keeping law simple. Always.

No Complexity

Owner-managed businesses do not need legal complexity for the sake of it.
They need someone who can identify the issue, explain what matters, tell them where the risk sits and help them make the decision.
That philosophy sits behind everything I do at OMB Legal.

Let me answer Your Quiet Questions

Do I deal directly with the solicitor?

Yes.
Direct access is central to the OMB Legal proposition.
We want to understand the owner behind the business rather than treating each instruction as an isolated transaction.

Do you only work with large businesses?

No.
We work with owner-managed businesses, entrepreneurs, shareholders, investors and families at different stages of their journey.
The relevant question is not simply the turnover of the business. It is whether there is a legal, commercial, property, finance or succession issue where our experience can add value.

I own a business. Do I need a specialist Will?

A business owner should ensure that their Will and wider succession arrangements properly address their business interests.
The important questions include who inherits the shares, whether the intended recipient can actually receive them, what the company’s articles and any shareholders’ agreement say, how the business will operate following death and whether the estate has sufficient liquidity.
Your Will should therefore be considered alongside your corporate arrangements rather than in isolation.

Can you help with trusts?

Yes.
We can advise on appropriate trust arrangements as part of wider estate and succession planning, including the interaction between the trust, the Will, family circumstances and the assets concerned.
Where specialist tax, investment or financial advice is required, this should be coordinated with the appropriate professional adviser.

Can you become our long-term business lawyer rather than only helping with one transaction?

Yes. This is exactly how many of our clients work with us and precisely how we will nurture our relationship.
A lawyer who understands how your company is owned, how it is financed, where its property sits, who the shareholders are, what contracts matter and what the owners ultimately want to achieve can often provide considerably more useful advice than a lawyer encountering the business for the first time during every transaction.

Can OMB Legal act for both my business and me personally?

Potentially, yes. Owner-managed businesses rarely exist in isolation from their owners. Your shares, property, borrowing, personal guarantees, family arrangements, estate and succession plans can all interact with the business.
We can advise across corporate, commercial, property and private wealth matters where appropriate. Where separate representation is required because of a conflict of interest or another regulatory issue, we will explain that clearly.

I don’t know exactly what legal work I need. Can I just speak to you first?

Absolutely. Business owners often know the problem before they know its legal name.
You may be thinking about bringing in an investor, buying a property, removing a shareholder, selling the company, protecting your family, reorganising ownership or simply asking what would happen to everything if something happened to you.
You do not need to diagnose the legal issue before speaking to us.
Tell us what is happening. We will help identify the questions that need answering.

Can OMB Legal work with OMB Accounts on my business?

Yes, where appropriate and with the necessary authority to share information.
That can be particularly useful when considering business acquisitions and disposals, reorganisations, property transactions, shareholder arrangements, succession planning and other matters where accounting, tax and legal considerations overlap.
The purpose is not to blur professional responsibilities. It is to make sure the relevant advisers are working towards the same objective.

Can OMB Legal act on the purchase or sale of commercial property?

Yes.
We advise on commercial property acquisitions and disposals, investment property, commercial leases, refinancing and related property transactions.
Where the property forms part of a wider business or investment structure, we can work with your accountant and other advisers on the wider transaction.
