Venture Capital and Business Angels
Our team
Our lawyers have worked extensively with, and in a number of cases within, private equity houses and UK venture capitalists (VCs) including regional players such as 3i, Northern Venture Managers, Northern Enterprise Limited and the Business Angel Organisation BIG.
We are also proud to have a large and growing number of private investors in small and medium companies (Business Angels) as clients.
Here’s how we can help
We understand both the drivers and the expectations VCs and Business Angels may have of management teams, companies and businesses. We bring this experience to the table in every transaction that we undertake and our commerciality ensures that the process is easy to understand and easy to complete.
We have also handled many transactions for management teams, guiding our clients through the complexities of investment agreements, equity structures and financing arrangements.
It is not just about "the legals", however. We will bring an innovative approach to the deal and will help you with your growth, your team, your investment and your future.
Our enormous range of financial contacts puts us in an ideal position to advise on the right source of finance for our clients and the right terms for it.

"It should be given that lawyers know the law. What you really need from corporate finance advisers is the commitment and commercial acumen to get the deal done.
“The Muckle LLP team has the experience and enthusiasm to drive really difficult transactions through."
