Start-ups and growing businesses

Founding a new business can be an exciting prospect but whether it's your first start-up or you are serial entrepreneur there are many decisions to make. Choosing a business vehicle, raising finance, protecting your ideas and brand, and employing staff - all of these have legal consequences and getting it right first time can be the difference between success and failure.

When it is time to get advice it's important to choose advisors that you can trust will have the right specialist experience and knowledge of your sector - and that will continue to be able to meet your needs as your business scales up. With UK-wide expertise and as the largest law firm headquartered in Scotland, choosing Brodies gives you access to a team of more than 500 legal specialists.
