I have a broad range of commercial contract and related experience.
This includes long-term partnering and supply chain arrangements (e.g. outsourcing, joint ventures, supply, distribution, agency and product development contracts) as well as equipping organisations with trading terms tailored to their specific requirements (both B2B and B2C).
I have extensive experience in the technology sector where I have advised a broad range of customer and supplier clients on technology contracts, outsourcing, e-commerce and related regulatory matters such as data protection and direct marketing.
I have a particular interest in sustainable supply chains, where I have advised clients on both incorporating sustainability-related obligations and promoting sustainability objectives through standard-setting or the licensing of sustainability-related data.
I also have many years of experience advising on the licensing and acquisition of all forms of intellectual property.
Many of my clients are based overseas and I have assisted numerous such clients in setting up and developing operations in the UK.
I coordinate the firm’s relationships with overseas law firms and am always happy to meet with overseas lawyers seeking English law advice for their clients.
