Partner
and access,
I am partner in and head of the firm’s Corporate legal practice group and my practice covers a wide range of corporate and company matters. Throughout my career I have worked with clients across a variety of industry sectors, but have significant expertise in the advertising & marketing, media & entertainment, technology and real estate & development sectors, acting in a range of transactions and working with clients through the lifecycle of their business from formation to exit. I act for some of the world’s largest names in advertising & marketing, media, mobile and digital/online. I am described in Legal 500 as an ‘outstanding legal adviser’, 'extremely skilled', ‘fantastic’ and as being 'creative', ‘pragmatic’ and ‘reliable’. I’ve had the following recommendation from one very longstanding global multinational client for whom I have acted on over a dozen M&A transactions: “Paul is an outstanding lawyer. He will think ahead of his peers on the other side and even ahead of his clients. He will come up with creative and elegant solutions to help negotiations move forward. He has an intimate knowledge of the law and at the same time a pragmatic approach to solving commercial, legal and tax issues.”
