Luxury Brands

We have a long history supporting clients within the luxury brands sector and we are as dedicated as ever to seeing it flourish.

Our team can help you with any present-day challenges and opportunities and can also advise on the more long-term elements of your business, including adjusting to climate change regulations and converting to sustainable processes.

We are a founding partner of The Luxury Library, which brings together a curated group of experts from across the legal, media, digital and brand industries, each with a long history of commitment to the luxury sector. Members act collectively as a catalyst for the growth of luxury businesses, and to ensure that more than simply the legal needs of our clients are considered. Our global understanding of luxury brands has connected us to the best lawyers around the world; and we have co-hosted luxury brand conferences in Milan and Geneva on managing trade marks, joint ventures, design industry protection, and e-commerce and selective distribution. 

Consumer Technology

Technology offers new ways for brands to interact with their customer base through apps, social media and omnichannel. Developing or enhancing a digital presence has become integral to the success and failure of traditional business models within this sector. We can help you develop your digital strategy, whether that be in relation to marketing strategy (such as influencer agreements and social media marketing) or with regards to customer facing (such as website, apps and omnichannel).

Marketing, Advertising and Sponsorship

The methods by which businesses market themselves to potential customers has changed dramatically in recent years.

This includes the introduction of big data and its utilisation in creating personalised digital campaigns and advertisements as well as the growth of the ‘influencer’ and social media serving as an additional outlet.

We can advise your business on a wide variety of marketing and sponsorship agreements. Our team have supported numerous international clients with brand partnership and collaboration agreements; and multiple brands with influencer arrangements and related compliance with the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA).
