Chris Henniker
Partner, Canary Wharf
I was admitted as a solicitor in 1978, becoming a partner in Kidd Rapinet on the merger with Steggles Palmer in 1997. I specialise in corporate finance, mergers & acquisitions, general business advice, commercial agreements, employment law and intellectual property matters. My focus is on getting the deal done for my client.
My corporate and commercial work includes:
- Asset and Share sales and purchases
- Subscription, Shareholder and Joint Venture Agreements
- Fundraising and Finance
- Agency, Distribution and Licence Agreements
- Service Contracts, Settlement Agreements and Option Schemes
I am the firm’s representative at CLG (Commercial Lawyers Group), the European and International network of commercial law firms of which Kidd Rapinet is a member, and I have extensive experience of cross-border transactions, working closely with our international contacts.

Out of Hours
I support Derby County FC, and enjoy tennis and skiing.
