Playing a leading role in Australian and international projects, Middletons places emphasis on prompt responses to complex issues providing practical – as well as technical – legal solutions.
Legal Proficiency
Our capabilities cover all aspects of public flotation and the public offer of debt and equity securities as well as the private placement of securities. We review and prepare information memoranda, disclosure documents of all kinds, constituent documents, trust deeds, schemes of arrangement and underwriting/sub underwriting agreements.
We advise on the structure and establishment of all forms of managed investments such as superannuation, managed investment schemes and trusts. This includes their relationships with third party service providers, regulatory issues and duties of the responsible entity.
We also structure different types of securities and corporate transactions and relationships consistent with your entity’s current needs but flexible in terms of its future direction.
