Professional background
I support clients in protecting and commercialising their intellectual property as they expand both within the UK and internationally. I help businesses maximise the value of their brands through tailored commercial arrangements, including franchising, collaborations, distribution, licensing, agency, and merchandising.
I have experience advising on advertising and consumer law, including compliance for promotional activities, and aim to provide practical guidance to ensure campaigns are both effective and compliant.
I work with clients across multiple sectors, including food and beverage, retail, education, leisure, entertainment, and media.
I am very proud that our team is ranked consistently in the top-tier for commercial contracts, franchising and licensing by Chambers & Partners, the Legal500 and Who's Who Legal.
