Our award-winning team of dealmakers has broad and deep experience in providing practical and commercial advice to a wide range of clients, of all shapes and sizes and across numerous sectors. Whether our clients are in the early stages of development, planning to expand or considering their exit options, we thrive on working alongside them to plan ahead and achieve their desired outcome.

Funding & Private Equity

Many successful businesses reach a stage where external funding is required to achieve their objectives. Specialist knowledge and relationships are essential when exploring potential sources, including private equity, debt, asset-based lending and angel investors.

Selling your business

There can be many reasons for seeking an exit and it is essential that the process is carefully and professionally managed throughout, from planning, to identifying buyers, to negotiations and structure, and finally, completing the deal.

Strategy & growth

Many of the key moments in the lifecycle of a business - such as making an acquisition, targeting growth, managing change or refinancing - require experienced and tailored support to develop strategies which lay the foundations for future success.

Management buy-outs/ins

MBOs and MBIs can be complex and time-intensive transactions and management teams need to assemble a capable and resourceful team of experts around them in order to maintain control and momentum as the deal progresses.

WilliamsAli offers a focused, high quality service to help businesses and their shareholders realise their ambitions. Our tailored service is delivered with independence, empathy and a deep understanding of our clients’ objectives. Our team has extensive deal experience acquired over many years of taking a leading role in business sales, MBOs, acquisitions, private equity transactions and fundraising.
