I can provide a comprehensive range of consultancy services on any subject relating to legal structures and governance issues. A small selection of examples might include:

• One-off work with a group to identify the most suitable structure for their organisation - and implementing it if required.
• Advising organisations at times of change: expansion, merger, moving from grant dependancy to income earning and the like.
• Acting as on-call expert for advisory and support agencies, providing specialist advice to their clients and members - as I do for a range of bodies including London Community Recycling Network, Community First (Hereford & Worcester), Co-operative & Community Finance (ICOF), and Flintshire Local Voluntary Council.
• Making a contribution to larger consultancy exercises where a specialist input is required on legal structures and associated topics.
• Mentoring staff in advice and development agencies as part of their professional development.
• Advising on more esoteric aspects of legal structures and governance such as share issues, golden votes, franchising, and complex membership models.

Commissioned Writing
I am frequently commissioned to write technical pieces in non-technical language. These include:

• articles in magazines and journals
• reports for people who must make decisions about an organisation's legal or organisatinal structure
• manuals, members' handbooks and other explanatory tracts
• advice notes for members or clients of an advisory or umbrella organisation (e.g. "Should we incorporate?")
• technical chapters in books about governance and management.
