Laura Pearson

I work with a broad range of clients, from global manufacturers to owner-managed businesses and start-ups across a broad range of specialist sectors, including technology, retail, automotive, charity and healthcare.

I specialise in drafting, reviewing and negotiating commercial contracts including supply agreements, standard and bespoke terms of business, distribution agreements, non-disclosure (confidentiality) agreements and franchise agreements. To provide a great service in carrying out this work, I enjoy getting under the skin of what the client is really trying to achieve and working to help achieve that outcome.

I also provide specialist support with regard to data protection compliance issues. I advise clients as to the development and implementation of internal systems for compliance with data protection laws including risk assessments, data audits, internal policies and training. I also offer support on data protection issues that arise on a daily basis such as subject access requests and data security breaches.

I assist businesses with intellectual property matters and frequently advise on intellectual property licensing, assignment and brand collaborations.
