“Stephenson Law provide maternity cover for our Group Legal Director - Data & Technology. We explored several options for the cover but concluded that SL’s flexible and personable approach was the best option for us. They were quickly able to integrate themselves into the team and get to grips with some key strategic matters. I would have no hesitation recommending SL to anyone looking for maternity cover.”

DSARs are known for causing headaches. For those of you fortunate enough to have never had to deal with one (and probably don’t know the true misery they bring), they are a resource nightmare – sucking up time, money and effort.
You’re working hard to build your business. You’re speaking to a prospective partner or supplier and need to share confidential information with them but you’re worried about the information being misused. It’s time to get an NDA.
Branding can make or break a business and can often become a business’ most valuable asset.
