Technology lawyers

In a climate of fast-moving technology developments and innovation our team is always busy.

We work with a wide range of clients in the technology sector and also clients who need legal advice on issues arising when dealing with technology, data and IP.

Our lawyers are all specialist commercial lawyers. Issues which impact technology businesses include employment law, corporate law, tax law, contracts, disputes and IP. We are strong and experienced in all these areas.
