Cases every company law student should know.

|---|---|
| Salomon v A Salomon & Co Ltd (1897) | A company is a separate legal person from its members |
| Gilford Motor Co Ltd v Horne (1933) | The veil may be lifted where a company is a sham to evade obligations |
| Prest v Petrodel Resources Ltd (2013) | Veil piercing is limited to cases of evading an existing legal obligation |
| Foss v Harbottle (1843) | The company is the proper claimant for wrongs done to it |
| Royal British Bank v Turquand (1856) | Outsiders may assume internal procedures have been followed |
| Ashbury Railway Carriage Co v Riche (1875) | Acts beyond the objects clause were void (the old ultra vires rule) |
Scenario: a director of X Ltd secretly buys land that X Ltd was negotiating to buy, then sells it at a profit.
| IRAC step | Answer outline |
|---|---|
| Issue | Has the director breached a duty to the company? |
| Rule | UK Companies Act 2006, s 175: avoid conflicts of interest, including exploiting company opportunities; India Companies Act 2013, s 166 sets similar duties |
| Application | The opportunity came through the director's role; there was no authorisation by the board or members |
| Conclusion | Likely breach; the company may seek an account of profits |
Voting thresholds: a UK ordinary resolution needs a simple majority; a special resolution needs at least 75%. If 740,000 of 1,000,000 votes cast support a special resolution (74%), it fails.

The price of company law help depends on the type of task and your deadline. A short problem question costs less than a full essay. You always see the price first: a fixed quote for homework and assignment guidance, or the tutor's hourly rate for live lessons, with no contract and no minimum number of sessions. Refunds follow our refund policy.
