Corporate
Our corporate lawyers work with founders, shareholders, investors and acquirers on transactions across the creative and technology sectors. We advise early-stage ventures, established players and institutional backers, on deals that drive creative and tech businesses forward.
We support clients through every stage of the business lifecycle: launching, raising capital, acquiring or selling companies, restructuring ownership, and exiting. Whether you’re scaling, pivoting or starting fresh, we help you move forward with confidence.
Our approach is built on sector knowledge.
We understand IP-driven businesses, talent economics, licensing models and the commercial pressures our clients face. That insight shapes how we structure deals, manage risk and protect what matters most.
We have years of collective experience leading transactions across music, film and TV, advertising and adtech, video games, sport, fashion, digital platforms and live events, and acting for investors backing growth in these markets.

- Incorporating and structuring start-up companies

- Private equity and venture capital transactions

Why choose our Corporate team?
We know your sector
Our clients operate at the intersection of creativity, technology and commerce. We understand what drives value – IP, talent, brand equity, data rights, tech infrastructure – and how to protect it in a transaction.
We’re pragmatic
We focus on solving problems and closing deals, not creating obstacles. You’ll get clear advice on what matters commercially, not just legally.
We work as one team
Our corporate lawyers collaborate closely with our IP, commercial, employment and disputes specialists, so you get joined-up advice when deals touch multiple areas.
We handle cross-border complexity
We regularly advise on UK/US and international transactions and know how to navigate multi-jurisdictional deals efficiently.
