Share Buyback Packagewith expert lawyers

As part of this package, our lawyers will assist your business with the share buyback process. This package includes:

• Guidance on the share buyback process and the types of permissions and disclosures you need to communicate to shareholders
• Drafting the Share Buyback Agreement in line with your requirements
• Preparing Form 280
• Phone consultations of up to 60 minutes with a Sprintlaw lawyer, who will take your instructions, advise you on the key legal issues, and answer your questions about the document
• One complimentary amendment to the final draft we provide, as long as you request the amendment within 10 business days of delivery

Please note that this package does not include conducting due diligence on the company, advising on tax, direct negotiations, attending signing or settlement, or corresponding with the counterparty or their lawyers. This scope also assumes that the transaction does not involve reviewing the company constitution, employment, or other compliance issues.

The share buyback process is heavily regulated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). Companies must follow important administrative procedures when carrying out a share buyback. If these procedures are not followed, the share buyback may not be effective and ASIC may impose penalties. Working with an experienced lawyer can help you manage the process correctly and reduce the risk of issues with ASIC.

Our fixed-fee Share Buyback Packages start at $2,300 + GST.

We handle everything by phone, email and video call, so you never need to visit an office. Once you request a quote, one of our legally trained consultants will get back to you within one business day with a fixed-fee proposal. If you accept, we will pair you with a specialist lawyer who will guide you through the process. All documents are delivered digitally, and you can communicate with your lawyer in the way that suits you best. It is the same quality legal advice you would get from a traditional firm, just without the commute, hourly billing surprises or the formality.
