Jennings R D Y & Co

We are based in the lovely market town of Malton, North Yorkshire, but have clients all over the north of England, and London, and are happy to travel. Our principal is Dick Jennings, a full-time specialist company and commercial lawyer of long experience. We are solicitors. That means that we are professionally trained, and highly regulated, to offer top quality service with an over-riding emphasis on putting the client's needs first at all times.We are regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority in accordance with their published Standards and Regulations, to a high standard of professional ethics.

Our principal, Dick Jennings, has been active in corporate finance for nearly forty years. He has worked on corporate finance deals in the City of London, internationally and regionally, for big corporates, investors, lenders, owner-managers and businesses of every shape, size and sector. I've got to say at this point Dick, the only reason why I work now is for sheer pleasure and fulfilment (and the consequent pleasure the spoils afford) and nothing gives me more pleasure than a job well done, working with you is a truly inspiring experience, thank you.

You only get one chance to sell and it may be the biggest investment realisation of your life. Managing the whole process right, from the start, is essential. You need to both optimize your realisation and shrewdly manage your risk, while getting the deal safely done. That takes a professional team with the right skills, the right commercial nous, and the right attitude. You are buying invisible legal rights, and all-too invisible legal liabilities and risks. It's not easy. Many acquisitions fail to happen.

We handle contracts of all kinds, with suppliers, customers, employees, funders, or commercial agents; for big one-off deals, repeat contracting on standard terms, complex supply chain management, franchises or licences. We have experience of most sectors and are used to dealing with complex regulatory situations, IP rights, international aspects, competition law issues and more.
