Business Support Services

Through our experience of acting for market-leading providers, our Business Support team is well-placed to understand the issues and opportunities facing businesses in this fast-growth sector. Our domestic and international client base ranges from advertising agencies and market research businesses through to recruiters and business intelligence providers, all of which share a need for responsive, pragmatic legal advice.

Much of our work in the Business Support Services sector involves helping clients to develop and expand, whether by structural growth (acquisition, merger or joint venture), flotation (frequently on the AIM or PLUS markets) or third-party routes to market (through licensing, distribution or agency agreements). We also bring strong expertise in competition law as well as commercial dispute resolution.

Managing and disseminating knowledge is crucial for our clients in this sector, and our team includes specialists in intellectual property, data protection, and e-commerce and website issues. As with all Pritchard Englefield’s teams, our Business Support Services specialists include fluent French and German speakers.
