What we do - Overview

We aim to provide our clients with the equivalent of an in-house legal service, able to manage all or specific aspects of their legal needs. In additional to legal advice, we have a significant depth of international business expertise gained through partnering with our clients in these areas since the inception of our business.

We provide advice in connection with international strategy, IP management, distribution and licensing, marketing, litigation management, brand enforcement and the day to day legal affairs of our international clients.

Recent major projects include:

  • Assisting in all aspects of the purchase of an historic European sports brand by one of our clients;

  • Acting as technical experts in a complex arbitration regarding the termination of licensing rights in South America, which resulted in a multi-million dollar verdict for our clients;

  • Managing a series of IP-related lawsuits for one of our clients in jurisdictions including the USA, Canada, China and Australia, as well as the negotiation of an amicable settlement after seven years of expensive litigation;

  • Managing a complex arbitration in Holland on behalf of one of our sports fashion clients;

  • Assisting in the acquisition of the European apparel licensing rights of a major international golf brand;

  • Organising and managing an IP enforcement programme for a leading fashion brand;

  • Competition and UK Bribery Act compliance programs for a number of our clients.
