What is the Young Tree Package?

The Young Tree Package provides all necessary legal documents for a start-up. The package was developed by our team of HR solicitors and GDPR lawyers for busy entrepreneurs wishing to start and expand their business quickly and start to recruit employees. 

Serenity Law will offer everything you need, from the initial business incorporation to the portfolio of legal documents covering privacy policy, shareholders agreement, supplier contracts and employee contracts.

Our start-up HR solicitors are here to help you to get your company started in the right way by incorporating the company structure to drafting bespoke legal documents to mitigate and safeguard your business as you go forward and trade.

Incorporation of Company

The Young Tree package comprises company incorporation in accordance with English legislation requirements, as well as registration of the entity at Companies House. The service also covers the creation of articles of association and memorandum of incorporation.

​

Shareholders Agreement

​

A shareholders agreement has certain rights and obligations, which are stated in a shareholder agreement. The shareholders agreement is legally binding and created by our start-up solicitors.​

When setting up a company with family or friends it is advisable to have a well drafted shareholders agreement. Although the company’s articles of association and company law assist to some extent, a fully considered and drafted shareholders agreement not only acts as a safeguard in the event if something goes wrong or not to plan, but also clarifies the roles and responsibilities of each shareholder, any capital raised and their obligations to the company.

​

A shareholders agreement can also assist to break any deadlock in the event there is no agreement on the direction or management of the company.

​

Business Terms & Conditions​

​Ensuring you have business terms and conditions suitable for your business not only provides clarity about what should happen in any given situation, but also ensures there is a clear process in the event when things don’t go to plan.

Business terms and conditions serve to inform the obligations that the company will provide to the customer, it basically sets up an agreed upon way to conduct business.

​

Business terms and conditions are important, since they also provide a way to solve different complex scenarios as they arise.

​

This will enhance the sales process by making it smoother, reduce disputes and establish clear resolution procedures in the event of any dispute and ensure you get paid on time.

​

If you sell goods, services or digital content, your new business start-up will need a proper delineated set of business terms and conditions to protect your business interests. Read our blog article by clicking here about updating your terms and conditions following the Covid 19 Pandemic.

Supplier agreement

​

The supplier contract states the obligations of the delivery of products or services. In addition to itemizing the materials to be supplied, the supplier contract will establish the responsibilities, timeframes, payment, and pricing for the deal.

​

A supplier agreement is an important agreement for many firms. Various terminology can be used for this form of agreement, some of which are listed below.

• Trade agreement

• Service contract

• Schedule of services

• Details of supply terms

• Supplier contract

• Distribution agreement

Agreements in various industry sectors employ distinct terminology. Essentially, the agreement governs the agreements between the company and its service and/or product suppliers. The supplier agreement governs the supplier's relationship with the company. The following terms are typically included in a supplier agreement:

• the products that the supplier must supply,

• Pricing and payment methods for all items and/or services,

• timetables for task completion and payments,

• the relationship's responsibilities and terms,

• procedure and process to be followed in the event of a dispute,

• standard specifications for all products and service levels

A well-drafted supplier agreement helps ensure that you can supply services on schedule and to standard to your clients or consumers. If your supplier is unable or unwilling to cooperate owing to unforeseeable circumstances, such as a pandemic. A well-drafted agreement lays out a clear path for resolving any disputes or failures to produce or meet standards.

​Your agreements should be in compliance with regulatory and policy changes and standards within the supply chain. Consideration should be given to for example, climate change, modern day slavery, anti-bribery for example when interacting and negotiating with suppliers from within the UK and other jurisdictions. Consideration should also be made to languages, and cultures. The terms of the supplier agreement are an important business document that will protect your company.

​

End user agreement

​

An end user agreement is a broad concept that can be constructed and applied in a variety of contexts depending on the industry sector. An end user agreement, in essence, establishes the terms and conditions between your organization and your consumer or client.

​

The contract can include your regular terms and conditions as well as any unique terms agreed upon with the end user, such as

​

- the agreement's time frame,

- the type of service or product requested,

- the purchase price and any payment arrangements,

- agreed-upon service levels between the company and the customer/client

- agreement to grant intellectual property rights to a certain piece of software

​​

The agreement is between the business and the client to ensure that both parties understand the scope of the job as well as the terms and conditions of completion. Using this form of agreement as a small business builds a positive, transparent relationship between you and your consumers. The following are some frequent terms used to describe this type of agreement:​

• Consumer contract

• Customer service agreement

• Client agreement

• Supply agreement

• Service contract

GDPR Lawyers & Privacy Policy

Modern businesses run by collecting data from their clients, whether it is for delivery details, personal information, or particular data to fulfil the supply of a service or product.

Data gathering is governed by legislation. This is protected in the United Kingdom under the Data Protection Act 2018, and additional legislative changes were made following the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union.

Noncompliance with data privacy regulations can result in hefty fines; the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has the jurisdiction to fine a corporation up to £17.5 million or 4% of its total annual worldwide turnover in the preceding year, whichever is greater.

Because the ICO has the right to levy monetary penalties for infractions of the Act's provisions, new company start-ups that gather data for EU and UK individuals must adopt an appropriate data protection and privacy policy customized to your industrial sector and marketing activities.

Our GDPR lawyers can assist you with the Data Protection legislation governing customer data in the EU and the UK.

If your new business start-up works within the United Kingdom, you must adhere to UK data protection legislation.

GDPR established new criteria for data-related consumer rights, but businesses are having difficulty building systems and processes to ensure GDPR compliance.

Employee Contracts by our HR Solicitors​

​

Our HR solicitors create your bespoke templates for your employee contracts. An employment contract should form the foundation of any relationship between an employer and employee. Having an employment contract with your employees allows your business to focus on the things you are good at, while our HR solicitors take care of your legal terms in compliance with regulations regarding employee contracts.

​

Employee contracts set out the following: 

• Employment conditions

• Rights

• Responsibilities

• Duties

According to gov.uk an employment contract does not have to be in writing. When someone has accepted a job offer verbally or in writing, the contract may be deemed to have begun. The Employment Rights Act 1996 governs employment in the UK and is a comprehensive legislation providing clear provisions when appointing and managing employees. 

Ensure you start your relationships with employees in the right way by appointing our HR solicitors to draft employment agreements that are legally sound and ethical.

​

Cookie Policy

​

Modern businesses operate through the collection of data of their customers, whether it be gathering data for delivery details, personal information or specific data to fulfil the delivery of service or product, data is collected. 

The collection of data is governed under law. In the UK this is protected under the Data Protection Act 2018, and further regulatory changes were made following the UK’s departure from the European Union.

The fines for non-compliance with data protection can be severe, the Information Commissioner Office (ICO) has the power to fine a business up to £17.5 million or 4% of the total annual worldwide turnover in the preceding year, whichever is higher.

​

The ICO has the power to issue monetary penalties for infringement of the provisions under the Act and therefore to ensure new business startups that collect data for citizens of the EU and UK are compliant, a suitable data protection and privacy policy should be drafted to safeguard your business, specific to your industry sector and marketing activities.

Our startup solicitors can help with the new GDPR compliant laws regarding the protection of customer data in the EU and UK.

​

If your new business startup operates inside the UK, you will need to comply with UK data protection law.

​

GDPR set new standards for consumer rights related to data, but companies experience difficulties in preparing systems and processes to maintain GDPR compliance.
