Baker McKenzie

Baker McKenzie has an extremely broad commercial contracts practice, acting for long-term clients in sectors ranging from banking to healthcare and retail, but is especially strong in heavily regulated sectors. The team’s workload spans specialist areas such as consumer protection, data protection, advertising and marketing, sponsorship, data privacy and e-commerce, as well as cyber-security. Helen Brown is notable for her work in the retail industry, and is a go-to team member for distribution arrangements. Brown leads the team alongside Julia Hemmings and Sue McLean, who both focus on the technology sector, and are instrumental in the group’s work on the full range of commercial agreements, including outsourcing agreements and joint ventures in the technology sector – a strength of the practice as a whole. Maulik Mittal is another key name.
