Experts in Buying and Selling Businesses

Ask most lawyers how much something will cost and they will probably say "it depends".

We are different. We appreciate that you are working to a budget and that requires certainty.

We therefore now offer Fixed-Fees on Business and Company Transfers.

Why Battens?

We are experts

Every member of our commercial team is a specialist in their field of expertise. This means that we identify the important issues quickly and deal with them efficiently. We know what is important and what is not - we do not try to re-invent the wheel. And when a tricky issue develops, we have a wealth of experience to draw upon for tried and tested solutions.

We are confident

We are so confident that we know what we are doing and can do it expertly and efficiently that we offer fixed fees. We will tell you exactly what the transaction will cost you, meaning that you can budget.

You can also relax knowing that we will bring the transaction to a timely conclusion without trying to draw things out simply for the sake of increasing costs.

We understand your concerns

Our commercial team deals with over 30 business and company sales a year, so we understand the procedure inside out - but we also understand that you probably do not. Our experts will guide you through the process and make sure that you are kept informed and consulted throughout.

We understand your business

We have acted for clients in most sectors including retail, shops and restaurants, leisure, food, manufacturing, IT, aeronautical, engineering and marine, so the likelihood is that we already have an excellent knowledge of your industry. Such experience means that we know what the key issues are, what the likely problem areas will be and how to resolve them.

We are accessible

We understand that time is often of the essence, so we work out of hours to ensure your transaction completes on time.

We give you our telephone numbers not our secretaries numbers, so you can contact us directly.
