Solicitor for Corporate Law in Hamrun

A private investor wants to put money into my company in Malta in exchange for a 20 percent equity stake through newly issued shares, rather than buying existing shares from me directly. What is the correct legal process to issue new shares properly so this is valid and reflected correctly on the register?

Our company in Malta is a bit behind on preparing audited financial statements for the last financial year, mostly due to delays on the accountant’s side. I’m worried about what penalties we might be facing and whether this could escalate into something more serious for the company or for me as a director.

I’m a director of a small limited company in Malta that has been struggling financially and is now behind on payments to a supplier. The supplier is threatening to come after me personally rather than just the company. I thought the whole point of a limited company was that my personal assets were protected. Is that not always true?

I run a small company in Malta and I’m relocating my office from Gzira to a new address in Msida. I know I need to update this somewhere official but I’m not sure exactly what the process is or whether there’s a deadline.

Our company in Malta has three directors, and two of them recently signed a significant supply agreement on the company’s behalf without holding any formal board meeting or passing a resolution. The third director, who wasn’t consulted, is now questioning whether the contract is even valid. What does Maltese company law say about this?

I run a company currently registered in another EU country and I’m considering relocating the business to Malta for tax and operational reasons, but I don’t want to lose the company’s history, contracts, and legal identity by having to start a brand new entity. Is redomiciliation to Malta actually possible?

I’m the majority shareholder and managing director of a company in Malta. A minority shareholder who owns about 15 percent and has never been involved in running the business is now demanding to inspect detailed financial records and correspondence. I feel like this is just an attempt to interfere. Am I obligated to give this access?

My business partner and I set up a company together in Malta where I hold 70 percent of the shares and he holds 30 percent, but under the articles of association certain decisions need unanimous shareholder approval. He is now refusing to approve anything, including basic operational matters, seemingly out of spite after a personal disagreement. Can I do anything about this?
