The legal work that matters most,
handled by counsel who know your business
as well as the law.
From commercial agreements and data protection to fundraising and corporate structure, the work below is not a series of separate services. It is the ground covered by counsel embedded in your business, with the context to handle it properly.
The areas we cover
Commercial Contracts
Contracts are where commercial relationships are defined — and where risks are either managed or overlooked. We draft, review and negotiate agreements that protect your interests and move your business forward.
We work across the full range of commercial contracts, with particular depth in technology agreements and substantial recent experience in construction and renewable energy contracts — project, supply and offtake agreements. Where appropriate, we can also support and train your team to handle negotiations more effectively.
Data Protection & GDPR
Data protection obligations are not static. Regulations evolve, your business changes, and the gaps between the two create risk. We keep your documentation, processes and communications compliant — and help you stay ahead of what’s coming.
We handle subject access requests, data breach responses, impact assessments and data protection agreements. We can also train your team on their responsibilities and put practical systems in place to reduce future exposure.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property disputes are easier to prevent than to win. We ensure protection is built into your contracts from the outset — and support you through trademark, patent and copyright applications when the time comes.
We help you identify intellectual property risks and opportunities, and where necessary can advise on licensing, sale of rights and defence against infringement.
Employment
Employment law is an area where small oversights can become significant liabilities. We review your contracts and policies to ensure they are legally sound, and advise on the issues that arise as your business and your team grow.
We cover employee incentives, share option agreements, disciplinary and grievance procedures and severance arrangements. As employment legislation changes, we keep you informed and your documentation up to date.
Mergers, Acquisitions & Investment
Securing investment — or buying and selling a business — is the most legally complex work most companies ever do. The terms agreed at these moments have long-term consequences, and the detail matters.
We lead the full process: heads of terms, due diligence, investment and share purchase agreements, shareholders’ agreements and option structures. Our role is to make sure you understand your options and negotiate from a position of clarity.
SaaS, Fintech & Regulated Technology
SaaS agreements, payment processing regulations and fintech compliance sit at the intersection of commercial law and rapidly evolving regulation. It is a specialised area, and one where experience makes a material difference.
We have the expertise to navigate it, keep you current with regulatory developments and ensure your agreements and operations remain on solid legal ground.
Corporate Structure & Governance
From incorporation and early-stage governance through to organisational change and exit strategy, the legal requirements of a growing business shift considerably over time.
We help you maintain a compliant corporate structure at every stage, understand your options as your business evolves and prepare properly for what comes next — whether that is a funding round, an acquisition or a change in direction.
