    2015-01-01

    Introduction

    Under the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008 (the “Companies Law”) there are two procedures available for the voluntary dissolution of a Guernsey company. A Guernsey company may be dissolved either by way of a “voluntary striking off” or a “voluntary winding up”. We set out below the details of each procedure.

    Can a partnership at will be dissolved simply on notice?
    2015-08-14

    Imagine that your partnership is on the cusp of concluding a large transaction which has the potential to be immensely profitable. The partnership agreement does not include a fixed term for the partnership, and can instead be terminated on one partner giving notice to the others (referred to as a “partnership at will”).

    Show me the money: enforcement procedures in Guernsey
    2009-08-06

    Litigation is not always about money. Sometimes, it really is about the principle of the thing. Sometimes there are rights at stake which cannot be measured in financial terms.

    2009-12-03

    Everyone is familiar with the story of the dashing Musketeers – Porthos, Athos, Aramis and d’Artagnan- and their inspirational motto. At the end of his adventures, one member of this famous band retired in order to marry the widow of a wealthy French lawyer, for whom the rallying cry might well have had a different significance.
