Elliot Fry
Senior Associate
I advise on a variety of commercial matters including intellectual property and data protection.
By stepping back from what’s on the page and always keeping in mind what will happen in practice, I provide pragmatic solutions and clear, succinct advice that cuts through the jargon.
My enthusiasm comes in part from getting to do something different every day, solving problems for disparate clients who each have their own priorities and processes. Ultimately though it comes down to helping businesses get where they need to be, and giving them a great result that I can be proud of.
