London-based law firm specialising in intellectual property, technology, corporate, commercial, data protection and employment law

Waterfront is a boutique law firm based in London with an expert team of solicitors specialising in intellectual property, technology, corporate, commercial, data protection and employment law.

Established in 2002 to provide an alternative option to the growing number of tech SMEs looking for legal advice, we have since steadily grown both in size and in breadth of expertise to a firm that provides advice to a wide spectrum of clients across many sectors, including start-ups, SMEs and global companies, as well as individuals.

We use our expert knowledge to help every client to get the most from its business and to protect it when challenges arise. Depending on the client, this may mean putting in place the right contractual framework with customers, suppliers and employees or navigating the complexities of an investment, acquisition or sale. We are specialists at advising and negotiating on behalf of businesses, their owners, suppliers, employers and employees. And when a dispute happens, we fight for our clients in the appropriate forum, whether that be in the Courts of England and Wales or in specialist tribunals, such as the Employment Tribunals or the UK Intellectual Property Office Tribunals.

We are one of the few boutique UK law firms that have been ranked for a number of years in the prestigious Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners legal directories and as well as intellectual property publications such as the World Trademark Review.
