Geldards LLP

Drawing upon a 'depth within the team that a client can rely on quantitatively and qualitatively', Geldards LLP is able to handle a significant range and volume of tech and IT-related contract work for clients in the public and private sectors. Team head Justin Harrington, who has vast technical knowledge and is able to 'think very broadly and imaginatively', remains the main draw of the practice, advising on complex UK-wide technology deals, including for end users and suppliers on IT services within the heavily regulated financial services sector. Many of the firm's mandates also include aspects of "big data", and team members are all well-equipped to advise on attendant data protection issues.
