Corporate

Our corporate lawyers bring with them in depth knowledge of the media and entertainment industry.  Our team has years of experience acting for renowned media companies and brands on both their transactional and day-to-day business activities.  Our knowledge and experience of the business enables us to guide our clients through the nuances of corporate deals in the sector and provide the solutions that our clients need to overcome their challenges and attain their objectives.

All of our corporate lawyers also undertake commercial work for our clients, giving them a perspective that looks to the long term success of our clients’ businesses and allowing them to continue the relationship once the corporate deal has been completed.

We act for established corporates, start-ups, founding shareholders and investors in relation to the full range of media and entertainment businesses (including record labels, publishing, live events, brands, artist management, PR, technology and new media).  In addition, we act for a number of corporate clients outside of the media space.

Focus areas include:

• Mergers and acquisitions (both share sales and business sales)

• Joint ventures and other shareholder arrangements

• Start-up strategy and structuring

• Partnerships and LLPs

• Financings (both equity and debt)

• Business advisory
