London Corporate Lawyer

The Marriott Harrison Corporate team delivers experienced, insightful and practical advice across the full complement of domestic and cross-border corporate advisory, financing and structuring transactions for entrepreneurs, private and public companies and their related investors and advisers.

Above all, our Corporate team is an enabler and facilitator of our client’s ambitions. That means proactively connecting our clients with the capital they need and, in turn, helping them to drive their success and build commercial value. Whether funding investment through equity or debt, enhancing or releasing capital through M&A and buyouts or preserving capital through reorganisations and restructurings, we act as the bridge between our clients’ ambition and their success.

We support our clients making strategic purchases and investments as well as those growing organically, giving them the help that dynamic organisations need to protect and unlock their commercial potential.  Our Business Restructuring team is integrated within the Corporate team to provide pragmatic and time-critical guidance if investments don’t proceed as everyone hopes at the outset or, equally, where opportunistic distressed purchases are being made.

We combine a pragmatic and positive attitude with advice delivered in a responsive and user-friendly fashion. Clients praise our ability to bring experience and insight to help protect their interests, focus on their immediate commercial needs and implement their longer-term strategies.
