Frequently Asked Questions

When should a startup hire an accountant?

Ideally from day one — or at the latest when you incorporate. A startup accountant helps you choose the right structure, sets up cloud accounting, advises on VAT registration timing and claims R&D tax credits worth up to 33p per £1 of qualifying spend.

What legal documents does a startup need?

Essential documents include a shareholders' agreement, articles of association, a founders' vesting schedule, employment contracts for first hires, IP assignment agreements and terms and conditions for your product or service.

How much do startup legal fees cost?

A standard startup legal package (shareholders' agreement, founders' contracts, IP assignment) costs £1,500–£4,000. Many firms offer fixed-fee startup packages. Some accelerators and incubators provide legal credits — check if your programme includes any.
