Managing the family business

A half-day event for ambitious family-owned businesses navigating the pressures of growth, generational change and modern risk.

Running a family business is a unique balancing act – legacy and loyalty meet commercial realities, fast growth, and an evolving regulatory landscape.

Join us in Inverness at the Kingsmills Hotel for a dynamic, scenario-led morning designed specifically for family businesses. Through realistic (but fictional) case studies, we'll explore the real legal and strategic challenges that many family-owned businesses face today – from disputes to inheritance tax, cyber attacks to divorce.

Our expert legal panel will unpack each scenario, covering everything from governance and sale preparation to people management, compliance, property and wealth preservation – showing how our joined-up legal approach can help futureproof your business and your family.

What to expect

• legal insights grounded in real business challenges;
• expert panels covering key commercial, regulatory and personal issues;
• a cross-practice, whole- business view; and
• networking with other business owners

This is a free event for commercial family businesses owners and advisers. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided. Spaces are limited.
