Our Joint Venture Services

We offer expert assistance across a range of areas:

Partnership Agreements and Advice

Establishing a well-drafted partnership agreement is crucial for defining the rights and obligations of each partner. Our team assists in drafting and reviewing agreements to ensure clear terms on profit sharing, decision-making, dispute resolution, and exit strategies.

Formation of Trusts

Trust structures are an effective way to manage business assets and protect stakeholders. MST Lawyers provides tailored advice on setting up discretionary, unit, and hybrid trusts to suit your business needs.

Joint Venture Agreements

Joint ventures can unlock new opportunities, but they also require careful legal structuring. We assist in drafting joint venture agreements that define each party’s contributions, responsibilities, and rights while minimizing risks.

Shareholder / Unitholder Agreements

To ensure seamless corporate governance, our team drafts shareholder and unitholder agreements that outline key rights and obligations. These agreements help prevent disputes by setting clear expectations for decision-making, ownership transfers, and profit distributions.

Shareholder / Unitholder Disputes

Disputes among shareholders or unitholders can be disruptive to business operations. MST Lawyers provides expert dispute resolution services, including negotiation, mediation, and litigation, to help resolve conflicts efficiently.

Buy/Sell Agreements

A well-structured buy/sell agreement is essential for managing ownership transitions. We assist businesses in drafting agreements that establish fair terms for the transfer of shares or units in cases of retirement, disability, or unforeseen circumstances.
