Hill Dickinson’s corporate team has extensive experience of advising on strategic alliances and joint venture projects, both in the UK and cross-border. These joint ventures range from collaboration and cooperation arrangements and shareholder agreements to full-scale mergers of existing businesses or companies.
As the use of limited partnerships has grown, we have increasingly advised parties on structuring their arrangements in this way, as well as via more traditional partnership structures.
Our experience in structuring joint venture projects, linked to our strong sector expertise - in particular in media, healthcare, the public sector and utilities – helps our clients to develop their businesses in these areas.
We work closely with all the parties involved to understand their commercial aims. This enables us to select the most appropriate structure and exit strategy for a joint venture project which will meet these objectives.

‘Excellent in all respects’, Hill Dickinson LLP has had the
largest offering in Liverpool since it acquired the corporate
practice of Halliwells in July 2010. Craig Scott has the ‘ability
to communicate in non-legal language’, and has particular expertise
in private equity matters. Other recommended partners include Sue
Russell and Jonathan Brown, the ‘responsive, pragmatic and
flexible’ Jane O’Sullivan; and new arrival from Squire Sanders
Hammonds Ian Gillis. Recent highlights include advising Klarius
Group on its acquisition from Affinia Holdings of the Quinton
Hazell Automotive Group.
