Shareholder disputes in Manchester, UK by BlackstoneSolicitorsLtd? Some individuals review their Wills regularly ensuring that they amend them to take account of a change in family or personal circumstances. However, those that don’t may find that on their death their Wills may not reflect their own last wishes or the expectations of those they have left behind. There are a number of reasons one might wish to make a Deed of Variation, for example, to make provision for someone who was excluded from the Will, to take account of differences in the financial position of beneficiaries, or to simply pass assets on to the next generation. There may well be other financial reasons to consider. At Blackstone, we can help to ensure a Deed of Variation achieves the outcome you are looking for. It is imperative that you seek expert legal help as once a variation has been made it cannot be undone.

This is the nuclear option in shareholder disputes and involves an aggrieved shareholder asking the court to wind up the company and bring it to an end. Usually the shareholders’ differences have become irreconcilable. The company will be wound up and if there is anything left after the creditors and liquidator have been paid, it will be distributed between the shareholders. They will go their separate ways. Not every aggrieved shareholder will be able to justify a winding up petition to the court and there will have to be strong reasons for believing that the company can no longer continue. The shareholder must demonstrate that there will be a tangible benefit in making a winding up order. If there is some alternative remedy, which would allow the company to continue, the shareholder may find that the court refuses to make the order.

What is an eligibility check? If you wish to transfer the ownership of a house with a mortgage to a new owner, then your lender will first need to perform an eligibility check. This enables the lender to assess whether the proposed new owner(s) of the property will be able to continue with the same mortgage. This will include whether the new owners or joint owners: Can pass a credit check, Have sufficient income to be eligible for the existing mortgage, Meet the appropriate age requirements, Have residency in the UK. What happens if the new owner fails the eligibility check? If you do not meet the requirements set out by the mortgage company, then an alternative will be to either find some way to remortgage the property or pay off the existing mortgage in order to transfer ownership.

There are a number of reasons why a Landlord or Tenant may want to end a commercial lease early. In any event, and notwithstanding the reason, there are steps that must be taken in order to ensure that the lease can be determined. Below we outline the reasons and the complications that can arise. Conduct would include delivering the keys to the Landlord and the Landlord accepting receipt so that the lease comes to an end. However, both options would require the Landlord to agree to the Tenant surrendering the lease. The Landlord may also ask for a payment to be made as ‘compensation’ for the loss of rental income. Similarly, if the Landlord wishes to determine a commercial lease early, it can ask the Tenant for a surrender. In this instance, the Tenant is not obliged to agree and may accept to surrender upon payment of a premium. Read additional info at https://blackstonesolicitorsltd.co.uk/.
