Let's talk ›Insights
Reading on contracts, shareholders and getting paid
- Ending a contract early: how you leave matters more than why
- When founders separate: the equity split is rarely the difficult part
- Restrictive covenants: what actually holds, and what enforcing one costs
- Reading a term sheet: the valuation is the least useful number on the page
- When shareholders fall out: the register does not tell you who controls the company
- Preparing to sell: the buyer looks where you stopped looking
- Joint ventures: how it ends is settled before it starts
- Directors’ duties: who you owe them to, and where personal exposure begins
- Signing a significant contract: the clauses that decide it are not the ones you read
- Money owed by a business customer: whether they can pay decides it
