I have over 27 years' experience in business law. I have been a partner and head of intellectual property, technology and data protection law at two large law firms (Eversheds and Veale Wasbrough Vizards). SampsonLegal provides the same first-class service, with clear, commercial and practical advice, at a more affordable price.I have been recognised as a “leading individual” and “notable practitioner” by the independent legal services directories Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners: “Paul Sampson advises on the negotiation of IT system implementation, procurement and outsourcing contracts large and small, and has acted for central government departments, financial institutions and blue-chip corporates. Sources say he is also an “excellent trainer with a national client base in data protection.”I have a degree in electronic engineering and have practised as a chartered engineer, so I understand technical and project issues better than most solicitors.
