Legal and Commercial Support
Inarak Consultants are legal professionals, helping businesses with their commercial operations
We specialise in commercial transactions in the developing world, focusing on three developing markets: Oman, Indonesia, and Sub-Saharan Africa
Our work covers the whole life-cycle of a business in an overseas venture, including:
market research and due diligence
advice on law and regulation in the overseas market
negotiating collaboration and teaming arrangements, and joint venture contracts
structuring new finance
In Oman, Indonesia and Africa, we have a long-standing affiliation with leading local legal counsel, and are therefore able to provide the client with a seamless, high quality work product, in each of those regions
We have a network of informal affiliations with local legal counsel in other parts of the developing world
Our consultants have the skill-sets and depth of experience of lead counsel in any major law firm, but at a fraction of the cost, given our low overheads
We are very competitive in both our fees levels, as well as our fees arrangements with our clients. If necessary, we can agree our fees as a fixed amount, to stay well within your budget.
