Types of work undertaken
The firm has divided its business into four key divisions: Commercial, Private, Insurance and Residential Property. Each division focuses on its individual strategy as well as the operational development of its services. This structure ensures that the services the firm provides are responsive to client needs and market developments.
Commercial
The Commercial team provides a comprehensive service to business, including corporate, dispute resolution, regulatory, employment, finance and commercial property. Exceptionally well connected in its market, the division aims to identify the best solutions for its clients’ commercial objectives delivered in the right timescale and at the agreed cost.
Described by clients as, “modern, well organised and efficient”, the division has gained a reputation for first-class service at competitive prices. Its market share increases year on year, helped by the wide ranging experience of the team attracting significant new client gains. Examples of this include its success in advising schools on conversion to academy status and the establishment of a new specialist licensing unit.

Mae works as part of a team at Langleys advising on all aspects of corporate law including company acquisitions and disposals (share and asset), re-organisations, investments, constitutional documents, share transfers and allotments, company formation, company administration (statutory procedures, resolutions etc.) and shareholder agreements.
Mae is also experienced in academy conversions having advised many schools on their conversion as standalone academies and is increasingly advising hybrid multi academy trusts on the expansion of their chains.
