Who it is for

Many kinds of business need a licence (official permission) before they can start work. If you buy a business, the licence may pass to you. If not, you may have to apply for a new one. For businesses that serve the public, and especially for risky activities such as some sports, the forms and rules can be hard to follow.

What happens

  • A lawyer talks with you about your plans.
  • You get a report on the steps, the likely costs and the chances of success.
  • If you agree, the application is started and followed through.
  • Tax and accounting help can follow afterwards.
