Smart Way to Stay Ahead in Your Company

Net Lawman Ltd, leader in the provision of online legal documents has launched more than twenty template documents enabling your company to benefit from the changes associated with the Companies Act 2006.

To ensure maximum efficiency, it is important for your company to review all company documents and ensure they both comply, and capitalise on the flexibility now offered under the Act. As well as additional requirements for compliance, the Companies Act has created an overall simplification of company procedure which provides for increased flexibility. At http://www.netlawman.co.uk?sc=1035 customers can find documents which not only ensure compliance with the law but ensure that their company and its shareholders stay ahead and benefit from the changes.

To form a company, a number of documents must be submitted to Companies House at the point of registration . These include a company memorandum, Form 10 and Form 12. Articles of association are no longer required at company formation; they are simply a recommended continuing constitutional document. Net Lawman stock template company memos which provide for all the changes introduced by the Act. Articles of association still play an important role, despite not being a formal requirement. Simply, they allow those with an interest in the company to understand how the company operates, its aims and goals. Net Lawman also stock simplified, flexible template articles of association suitable for any company – simply tailor them to suit you. Existing companies which require changes to their articles of association can, once the transitional provisions have been published, pass a resolution amending the articles prospectively to take effect from the date when the relevant parts of the Act come into force.

From January 2007, companies benefited from increased flexibility in methods of communication because email has been recognised as an established and appropriate method. It is therefore necessary for all companies to review the communications provisions in the company’s articles of association and consider whether any amendments are desirable. If changes are necessary, a draft resolution should be scheduled for discussion at the next AGM. Of course Net Lawman can help you to make such changes. Simply instruct us and we shall draft precisely to your requirements. The Act also makes changes to shareholder meetings, for example, their timing and conduct; notice, proxy forms and other required documentation. You should ensure your documents are up-to-date and if not, you can be sure that the documents from Net Lawman will help.

All Net Lawman documents provide for the changes in company law. For example, there is no need for a company secretary for private companies and no need for private companies to hold an annual general meeting unless they positively opt to do so. Further, the documents a llow companies to take decisions by written resolutions with ease. Lastly, documents indicate simpler rules on share capital, removing provisions that are largely irrelevant to the vast majority of private companies and their creditors. We have also included n ew provisions such as allowing ‘minutes’ of meetings to be copied to shareholders via email.

Whether you are looking for a new shareholders agreement, memorandum, articles of association, or documents to deal with notices or charges, the Net Lawman company documents will ensure your company is up to date and making the most of the latest changes. Andrew Taylor , CEO iterates: "We continually strive to keep Net Lawman in the number one position for online legal documents. These company documents keep us bang up to date in this important area."

Of course, as with all Net Lawman documents, if we do not have quite the right template document for you, we shall happily draft one specifically to your instruction. All company documents come with explanatory notes to guide you through the minefield, plus you can be safe in the knowledge that the documents have been drafted to the usual N et Lawman quality allowing changes to be implemented with confidence.
