On a typical day I may be dealing with ASA complaints, clearing a proposed script for a TV commercial and providing related risk management advice, advising on data protection issues, drafting/negotiating an IP licence, freelancer agreement, content agreement or publishing agreement. It’s often a mixed bag.
