Directors' duties
As a director, or would-be director, it is important to be aware of the duties, responsibilities and liabilities which go with the job.
This means acquiring a basic working knowledge sufficient to cope with the day to day requirements of the relevant companies legislation.
It means understanding the nature of the obligations owed by a director to his company and the consequences of any breach of duty.
Above all, it means recognising the situations where professional advice may be required:
- company formation
- advice on company legislation
- personal guarantees
- minority shareholder protection
- avoiding personal liability
- director disqualification.
At Meade King we can offer comprehensive advice on all aspects of directorship from everyday questions of procedure to the often complex interpretation of company and insolvency law.
And, if things do start to go wrong, we can help you to anticipate and minimise the risk of personal liability and disqualification.
