As you grow and make strategic hires and acquisitions, and move into new markets, we’ll be on hand to support you with specialists with in-depth experience of your industry and the issues at hand: from managing more complex data, protecting your intellectual property and negotiating the most detailed commercial contracts, to hiring the right people (and treating them properly). Whatever your future aspirations, Cube by Lewis Silkin can help with your people needs at every step of the way.

People

People

A business is scalable only when it has the right people on board. We have supported some of the most successful startups in recent years on their employment issues, partnering with them during the rapid growth that success has brought them. We can draw on our wealth of experience to keep that focus on working with you in planning for your future growth, building processes that will still be relevant as you grow without having an impact on current recruitment levels.

Immigration

Immigration

As you grow you need the best talent, regardless of where that comes from globally. We have vast experience supporting innovative startups through growth phases, working with founders, and teams who face the pressures that come from rapid expansion influenced by both market demand and investor interest. We help them develop the necessary infrastructure and skills to ensure robust compliance with ever changing immigration laws.

Commercial deals and contracts

Commercial deals and contracts

As your business scales, commercial deals and contracts become more complex. Our team of specialists use our experience to guide you through the process. Too often we see startups who have overlooked crucial terms while structuring anything from commercial deal and partnerships to negotiating contracts. We know the cost, as well as setback to your growth that this can cause, and will use our expertise to get you the best deal.

Disputes

Disputes

Disputes are a reality of the startup world that can greatly impact your business. Whether you didn’t agree terms clearly with co-founders through to costly contractual mistakes, it’s easier to manage the situation as early as possible. Our experts work to help startups avoid disputes, and where that is not possible, navigate them to achieve the best outcome possible.

If your startup wants to pursue action against others, we can help you assess and pursue claims; and can reduce and, in certain cases, eliminate the upfront cost of pursuing a claim.
