Commercial | Manufacturing
High-tech manufacturing is one of the fastest-moving and most exciting fields in which we work.
Our clients trust us and value our advice, and have sought our help on a range of issues throughout their lifetimes. Acting for manufacturers over decades – some of which we have seen develop from start-up to global corporation over that period – has given us a depth of expertise across all aspects of their needs and the ability to provide advice that addresses those needs and adds value.
Our expertise includes:
- intellectual property
- research and development
- supply-chain
- employment
- factory and office premises
- environmental issues
- product recall
- corporate finance
Example
- We have acted for over forty-five years for a world-leading instrument manufacturer. During that time we have advised on outward supply contracts, inward supply contracts, a major joint venture, sale of a division, several rights issues, many acquisitions, university collaborations, research and development contracts, intellectual property licences, product recall, disputes, senior employee contracts and the full range of employment matters, factory and office premises, CE marking and corporate venturing. Our client’s operations are global and our advice and services have been seamless across all jurisdictions.
