Corporate

Jayne joined Glenville Walker in September 2023 as a Senior Associate within the Corporate department.

With 10 years of experience in corporate law, having qualified in 2015, she brings a wealth of knowledge from her background in litigation.

Specialising in transactional work, disposals, and acquisitions for owner-managed businesses, Jayne also handles joint ventures, reorganisations, and private equity investments, representing both sides. Additionally, she acts for lenders on corporate lending transactions and advises start-ups on general corporate governance.

Her experience spans from start-up businesses to multimillion-turnover companies in the UK and internationally, including clients in America, Germany, and New Zealand. Jayne has experience supporting clients across various industries, including distribution, technology, education, retail, manufacturing, and professional services.

Known for her personable yet straightforward approach, Jayne is highly regarded by clients for her firm but fair advocacy and commercial astuteness. She was drawn to Glenville Walker for the bespoke first-class skillset of the corporate team, ensuring a more personal and dedicated service for clients. This approach fosters stronger long-term relationships and delivers tailored solutions.

Jayne is also on the board of The Women’s Organisation, promoting women in business across the region. In her spare time, she enjoys travelling, dining out, and reading. She attends dog shows with her Alaskan Malamute, Mylo, initially as an exhibitor and now as a qualified dog show judge specialising in the working group.

BIOGRAPHY
WHAT THEY SAY

“We have used the services of Denise Walker and her team for many years and undoubtedly will continue to do so. As Managing Director of a group of companies based in Merseyside, I have, over the years, had to rely on accurate and timely advice from Denise Walker and her team with regard to many areas of Corporate and Commercial issues. From complex supplier contracts to business restructuring and all parts in between, I have always valued the legal advice provided by her. Her ability to very quickly cut through the “white noise” of commercial issues and summarise the problem and the legal requirements of dealing with issues has always impressed me. Equally important is this advice is always provided in a down to earth, common sense manner and strips away the “legalese” jargon which can often accompany such commercial issues. I would recommend her services to anyone needing, accurate, cost effective and timely advice in all Corporate and Commercial decisions.”
