Our Expertise
Media
The media is increasingly under its own spotlight, and the sector is evolving rapidly in response to regulatory changes, increased competition, shifts in consumer demand and the convergence of IT, communications and various media streams.
Having been actively involved in the majority of high profile mergers and acquisitions in Scotland's media sector, our knowledge of the media business is second to none.
Our media law team advises newspapers, publishing groups, advertising agents, broadcasters and arts associations on a range of issues, including regulatory guidance and copyright issues, privacy, defamation and contempt. Whether the advice is contentious or non-contentious, our goal is to achieve creative and innovative commercial solutions for you.
