Commercial decisions are at the heart of business activity.

Businesses need commercial lawyers who can help maximise the business opportunities from these decisions and avoid legal pitfalls.

We can help you to identify opportunities and strategic advantages, assess risks, exploit success and minimise the consequences of any downside. Whether you are a supplier or customer, a start-up or a large global brand, we can advise you on a wide variety of commercial matters.

Our experience comes from working in-house, as well as in private practice - most of the commercial team have undertaken a secondment with an in-house legal team equipping them with a thorough and invaluable grasp of the practical requirements of business.

Our team consists of sector specialists with a particular strength working across all the firm's key sectors, including Technology, Media & Telecoms, Retail & Leisure, Financial Services, Sport, Healthcare, and Charities. We are recognised as market leaders by our clients and independent directories.

Our team can assist you with:

• Large scale managed service and outsourcing agreements
• IT contracts
• Supply chain logistics
• Procurement through to sponsorship, merchandising, property management and marketing and advertising.

We chase solutions - whether that’s supporting your in-house team behind the scenes, providing online reviews and reports, through to full deal structure planning, leading negotiations on your behalf and advising on implementation and operational issues.

If you have international operations – we can call upon our international networks of associated firms to provide you with the local legal expertise required, where English law is not applicable.
