Loans and Business Law

We specialise in commercial assistance for small businesses or individuals looking to start a small business. We will guide you through the maze of contracts, leases, franchise and licence agreements, partnership and joint venture agreements and any small business contract in general.

Our aim is to help you understand exactly what you’re entering into and once you fully understand the terms of the contract, to be able to make informed choices about any contract or business you are prepared to invest your time, effort and money into.

We are also experienced in drafting ‘family contracts’ for people loaning money to other family members, or starting a business with other family members, so that there is no misunderstanding that could lead to a loss of more important things than money.

Liquor licences are usually looked upon by the restaurateur as being a nightmare task, but with the right expertise, they can be quite simple and relatively inexpensive.

If you are looking to increase revenue in your restaurant by introducing a liquor licence, contact us and we will take the stress out of obtaining a liquor licence for you.

MORTGAGE ADVICE ON LOANS

Most banks require that each party to a loan obtains independent mortgage advice.

Aberdeen Lawyers have experts on mortgages that can provide you with that advice, even in complex cases.

PREPARATION OF INTER FAMILY LOAN CONTRACTS

Loans between friends and family members are often the most problematic and difficult to enforce.

We can help ensure that the agreement is binding and there is no misunderstanding as to the terms.

We also document loans between 3rd parties.

SALE OF BUSINESS CONTRACTS

Are you looking to sell your business and want to be sure that the contract of sale contains everything it needs to validly transfer your business.

Aberdeen Lawyers can help.

SALE OF BUSINESS SETTLEMENT

Have you sold your business and want to ensure that you receive all the funds you are entitled to at settlement and to iron out any legal problems or misunderstandings that often occur?

Aberdeen Lawyers can help.

LITIGATION - DEBT COLLECTION

Have you carried out work and not been paid for your endeavours? Have you had an agreement with another person to pay you money and they have not complied with the terms of that agreement? We can help.

Can I afford it?

We appreciate that Commercial Law cases may take time to resolve, and that the costs can escalate unexpectedly which is why, when beginning a case, we provide you with a likely estimate of expenses, and guide you on your best method of minimising costs.

When I first visited Aberdeen Lawyers I was scared and emotional, as soon as I met with Suzanne all my fears went away, she has this kind of magic to her that I can not explain. I can not whole heartdly recommend Suzanne at Aberdeen Lawyers enough! Suzanne made me feel like I was speaking to a good friend she made me feel welcomed and justified all my feelings, I was with Suzanne in my matter for a year and honestly she has become like family now. At every point in my case Suzanne walked me through it she made me laugh when I wanted to just cry. I have not met a most caring lawyer in my life and I've been through quite a few. I owe Suzanne my life. Thank you Aberdeen Lawyers- special mention to AnnMarie who went above and beyond for me also!

Easy relationship with our conveyancers as we were first time property sellers. All calls were returned in a timely manner, and settlement was made easy for us!

I first went to see Suzanne more than 3 years ago for what should have been a straight forward property settlement. I had no idea at that time just how complicated things were going to get. While I was having a lot of emotional breakdowns, Suzanne always remained calm and dealt with each new issue as they came up. While Suzanne was always professional, she was also very caring and empathetic at the same time. Her “can do” attitude and determination to do her absolute best for her client really stood out from that very first appointment. Suzanne and Vittoria were always available for a “calming” chat and, I can tell you, I needed plenty of them. Andre was very helpful and professional in dealing with another part of my property settlement, also having to deal with issues but able to get things done. I know that the reason I still have my home (with no more fear of ever losing it) is 100% due to Suzanne and her wonderful team. A big heartfelt thank you to you all, you are amazing! I would recommend Aberdeen lawyers to anyone, and I have!!!

Thank you. I highly recommend a consultation with Aberdeen Lawyers

I went through a very difficult (to say the least) and traumatic children custody court case for 2 years. Emmanuel from Aberdeen lawyers was referred by one of my friend, who was going through his own case at the time. He too had only great things to testify about this law firm. Right from the time I made an appointment for the initial consultation, starting from Vittoria, in the reception, everyone in the law firm were very warm and empathetic. Emmanuel is a very genuine lawyer, who listens and wants the best outcome for his clients. He makes time whenever needed and is always available to discuss any aspect of the case, however small it maybe. He is always reachable and returns calls and emails promptly. The one thing that really stood out for me about him was that he never once during the whole process made any claims or promises to just make it look good or easy. I’m really grateful to him for getting us across the line with a positive outcome. He took me through every step of the process patiently and provided the much needed moral support I needed to get out of the traumatic experience. I would highly recommend Emmanuel and Aberdeen lawyers for their professionalism!!!
