    Sorry, it was just a random thought. I do have high morals and wouldn't do anything that is as per law and morally wrong.

    Setting up limited company- share capital v/s loan

    Thanks Chris. I agree. And this guy (lets call him X) has mentioned that the money he is putting in is a loan to the company, so he knows about the way things work. Can I not increase the share capital now by amending the company documents with Companies House? Will it require his consent...

    Removal of Director

    Yes, you are absolutely right. But my dilemma was- should I even try to put in place a shareholder's agreement before bringing the fight out in open?

    Removal of Director

    Thanks for response. My understanding from reading on the net and on speaking to few people (including a solicitor) is that for a limited company to be classed as quasi-partnership, following things should be there (Ibrahami case): An association formed or continued on the basis of a personal...
