Legal & Contractual
Coolfin offers an in-house legal and contract production service to support client projects. As advisors to some of Europe’s leading law firms we are often called upon to apply a commercial understanding when establishing legal frameworks for protecting client products and services. This allows us to generate a wide range of agreements to meet client needs. Patent, and product and process design protection is often overlooked during the business planning stage.

Good financial planning and treasury management are fundamental to the stability of any company. Raising working capital and project finance is more difficult now following the breakdown of traditional equity markets.
