Gowling WLG stands out for its breadth of contractual work, which spans from procurement and sales contracts to outsourcing agreements. Franchising agreements are another key element of the group’s offering, and practice co-head Sarah Riding, who splits her time between Birmingham and London, and is singled out for her ‘strong understanding of franchising law and principles’. Riding is also commended for her expertise in the automotive industry, a key area of expertise for the group alongside the real estate, retail and public sectors (where the group has experience of advising on contracts for government departments). Versatile practitioner David Lowe co-heads the practice and also leads the international trade group. Jocelyn Paulley and Rachel Pennell are other key team members.
