Legal Consultant

Highly competent and pro-active legal consultant helping large and small clients to grow and protect their assets, and servicing all of their business needs. Experience working in London (UK) in both private practice and in-house advising a wide range of clients, with a particular interest in start-ups and the media and entertainment sector. Since relocating to Montreal, I undertake a range of remote legal consultancy work for UK-based clients in a freelance capacity and for UK digital legal service providers. All advice provided is commercially astute, easily digestible, industry-specific and tailored to the client’s budget. When I am not wearing my legal hat, I enjoy writing articles and blogs on a range of industry and consumer themes. In short, if you are seeking a versatile and responsive legal advisor, with an ability to identify and respond to your needs precisely and within short time frames – I will not disappoint. I look forward to working with you!

The content of the article we requested showed expertise in the required topic area and was well researched. In terms of the writing style, it was well written requiring very minimal amends which were purely subjective. I would happily work with Laura again.

Laura did a first class job with my website terms and conditions, privacy policy and subscription programme t&c's. She really took the time to understand my requirements and supported me extremely professionally all the way through my project. I got great legal advice on my copyright query also and will definitely be working with Laura again for my future legal requirements.

Very thorough work, and honest clear advice in a tricky field of expertise. Would most certainly recommend using her for future work. She was consistently helpful and flexible.
