Our Media, Sport & Entertainment team support UK and international clients across all areas of their businesses.

From the film, TV commercial, promotion or sporting event that everyone sees, to the “behind the scenes” work such as employment, real estatecorporate, immigration, tax and regulatory advice.

Supported by data protection and technology experts, our team are uniquely placed to support you with the challenges that these fast-paced and ever-changing sectors present.

We are preeminent in rights management and enforcement and act for the largest, and often international, media organisations operating in Scotland.

Our full-service offering also allows us to support our clients with key projects such as M&A or financing, as well as any disputes that may arise.

The Burness Paull team is sharp, available and creative. They have so many strengths
