As a business operating in today’s increasingly regulated markets, you need to manage your commercial risk while achieving your business objectives. Your success is built upon the effectiveness of your relationships with both customers and suppliers. Sector-specific contractual relationships are key to this. Not only do you need high quality commercial legal advice, you need it in the context of the sector in which you operate. We specialise in providing commercial law advice to stakeholders in the gambling and technology sectors.

Whether you require advice on distribution arrangements, services agreements, technology contracts, website terms and conditions, IP licensing, software licensing, outsourcing or any other bespoke commercial arrangement, we can guide you toward the best outcome for you. Examples of areas that you may need assistance with are:

  • Technology: software development agreements, software licences, maintenance and support agreements, services agreements, professional services agreements,  distributor agreements, data processing agreements.
  • Content licensing: IP licences, software licences, data licences, reseller agreements, platform provision agreements.
  • Advertising and Sponsorship: sponsorship agreements, endorsements, agency contracts, media sales agreements, digital advertising.
  • Consumer arrangements: website terms and conditions, privacy policies and promotional terms, consumer law compliance.
  • Marketing: affiliate terms and white label partnerships.

We can assist you with an extensive range of commercial and contractual matters. For example, we can draft your standard terms of business which gives you an opportunity to implement terms favourable to you and allows for consistency in your arrangements with customers. Of course, not all business partners will be prepared to sign up to your standard terms so we can review any proposed contract terms and support you through the negotiation process.

As well as drafting and negotiating day-to-day commercial contracts in the gambling and technology sectors, we also advise on a range of company law issues and corporate transactions including company compliance, corporate governance, M&A, re-structuring, joint ventures and shareholders agreements. Additionally, we work with company formation agents, who can incorporate a new company for you within a matter of days.
