'Fast moving' is an adjective often used to describe the retail and hospitality sector. Intense competition, changing consumer behaviour, technology innovations and a dearth of human resources have all brought their own challenges in recent times. Those that don’t keep up will suffer; there are many industry names that have gone by the wayside through failing to respond to change.
The range of legal issues involved requires a multi-disciplinary approach from their advisers. We offer real estate, corporate and commercial, employment, financing and dispute resolution advice tailored to the sector. Our wide sector knowledge, experience and technical expertise is complemented with a reputation for pragmatism and commerciality.
High street retailers, pub and restaurant chains, gym operators and luxury brands turn to us to provide straightforward, commercial advice on all aspects of their operation. We are nimble and responsive, reacting fast to events to support our clients through these changes.
Whether you’re a start-up in the sector, an established business, or part of a large corporate chain, you need an adviser who’s been there and done it before. Someone who can handle the rapid pace of change and help keep you in front.
We speak the language and work regularly with other sector advisers, enabling us to offer more nuanced advice. We can help you protect your interests, avoid the pitfalls and spot the opportunities
