Media

"Focuses on the details of a transaction, allowing us to get on with the business at hand." 

"The lawyers get to grips with a problem quickly and efficiently." (Chambers UK, 2009)

As many aspects of the media industries move closer to converging, we believe that a stand-alone media capability is no longer sufficient. Our media lawyers are experienced in their specialist sectors but also understand how this fits with converging technologies, associated intellectual property matters and innovative corporate finance activities. We also appreciate that media businesses often require a creative commercial approach to legal issues in order to achieve their aims.

Our clients are some of the biggest publishers, major broadcasting businesses, collecting societies, banks, producers and advertisers. Our work includes complex licensing agreements, broadcasting and production contracts, sponsorship, advice on rights and joint ventures. It often involves a variety of platforms and delivery systems.

Where parties wish to settle disputes, our media litigation team advises on all methods of dispute resolution, including in relation to libel and intellectual property.
