Question: When would I need an investors agreement?
Answer:You would need an Investor’s Agreement when accepting investment from individuals or companies in your business. Even if the investment is from a family member or friend, it is important to set out the legal relationship between your business and an investor as there can be misunderstandings if each party is not completely clear on the terms of the investment. A written Investors Agreement protects you by enforcing the rights of each party and can prevent confusion over rights or obligations under the agreements, which may result in a dispute.
