Creative and media

Bristol is a booming centre for the creative industries and we are proud to support this sector in our practice.  We act for film companies, web and graphic designers, architects, advertising and marketing businesses and publishers.

Technology has transformed the provision of such services.  Our clients operating in many of these areas include those whose primary medium is the internet.  To learn more about our expertise in this sphere, see the technology page.

We can advise on a broad range of contractual and other legal matters relevant to creative and media businesses.  These include protection of intellectual property and other rights relating to film, text and artwork, publishing agreements, contracts for consultancy and other services and customer and supplier terms. 

In addition we can help with a variety of more general legal matters which may affect those operating in the sector.  These include data protection, employment and property law, director and shareholder issues, litigation and contracts of all kinds.

We have experience of buying and selling businesses in the sector.  If you are considering a sale or purchase we will be pleased to give you some initial strategic thoughts and a price or range.
