Jennifer Packer

Senior Associate - Corporate

My experience

I have over 10 years’ experience specialising in corporate work, advising on a wide range of matters including:

  • acquisitions and disposals;
  • MBOs;
  • equity investments;
  • reorganisations;
  • shareholders’ agreements and articles of association;
  • joint venture agreements;
  • EMI options;
  • partnerships and LLPs; and
  • transactional insolvency (buying and selling distressed businesses and assets).

I am noted in The Legal 500 (a leading independent directory) as a key lawyer within the team here at Paris Smith. I act for private companies, owner-managed businesses, directors and investors across a wide variety of sectors providing targeted, commercially relevant advice and assistance to businesses and individuals.

I head up our In-house legal counsel offering here at Paris Smith and have previously spent time working in-house for a London based large international company.

I am a member of the Agriculture Sector team and provide support and advice in relation to farming partnership agreements.

How I’ve helped our clients

We instructed Jenny Packer to help us organise and facilitate an MBO for Tew Brothers Ltd. We specifically asked for Jenny because of a previous very positive experience when Jenny organised and put in place a shareholders agreement. Although sorting an MBO can be very complex, Jenny helped us to understand the process at every stage with excellent advice and also recommended and facilitated the use of other partner professionals such as AZETS to assist with the tax element of the MBO. The whole process was completed within the time scale we had asked for and in a seamless and professional manner. We were very happy and impressed with the whole process.

The teams are professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I put a lot of trust into Paris Smith’s advice and would have no hesitation to recommend their services.
