Commercial IP and TMT solicitor (2011) specialising in contentious and non contentious commercial issues. I advise clients on a wide variety of matters including technology law, franchising, e-commerce, intellectual property, enforcement of intellectual property rights, privacy, data protection and general commercial issues.
Commercial IP innovation and application by brand owners is a key practice area for me, advising clients and negotiating on behalf of clients in relation to licensing, franchising, distribution, and innovative manufacturing arrangements. Recently, I have advised a number of clients during the restructure of their brand and IP assets particularly in the course of any sale and purchase arrangements where the IP ownership structure is linked to maximising revenue streams. Key clients include IP rights holders, software developers, software companies, hoteliers, innovators, start-ups, pharmaceutical companies, media houses, product and fashion designers and e-commerce platform operators.
