    Telecommunications Lawyers

The telecommunications sector has evolved rapidly in recent years with the emergence of 5G infrastructure; continued developments with Internet of Things (IoT) products; and related edge computing. 

The industry continues to strive to meet customer demand for increased speed, reliability and capacity, which will undoubtedly continue in years to come.

We can work with you on the full spectrum of issues that arise within the telecommunications industry, particularly within the complex regulatory space of telecommunications infrastructure and the Electronics Communications Code. We will help you to manage and mitigate the strategic challenges arising from the continual development and delivery of new types of digital services, particularly in connection with smart and assisted technologies and remote telecoms solutions.

Our international focus sees us advise a wide range of leading operators and other telecoms companies on a range of strategic matters, from ongoing technology disruption to digital transformation and diversification in the Middle East; the Caribbean; Africa and Europe. Our market leading advice to policy makers and regulators in these jurisdictions is changing competition and liberalisation initiatives, providing us with a broad perspective of the regulatory and commercial challenges facing both developing and developed markets.
