In this third episode of our Shareholder Disputes series, we move from prevention to resolution—exploring what happens when a founder’s exit becomes unavoidable. We break down the practical mechanisms for buying out departing shareholders.

Join hosts Stuart Mullins, Corporate Partner at Clarkslegal, and Nicky Goringe Larkin, founder of Goringe Accountants, as they provide practical guidance on:

Navigating the funding challenges of share buyouts after disputes
Understanding company share buybacks: legal requirements, financial constraints, and the importance of expert advice
Exploring alternatives when buybacks aren’t viable, including personal funding by remaining shareholders and structuring payment terms and security to include Employee Ownership Trusts (EOTs)
Practical tips for ensuring smooth exits and maximising value for all parties

This episode offers actionable insights for founders and shareholders navigating the complexities of business separation.
