ATC Partners With Bailoran Solicitors

The ATC is delighted to partner with Bailoran Solicitors for commercial legal advice and support tailored to language service companies.

Bailoran Solicitors act for businesses, company directors, shareholders and individuals, specialising in:

• Commercial law including terms and conditions (T&Cs) for the supply and purchase of goods/services, website documentation, and business services agreements;
• Intellectual property (IP) including identifying IP such as copyright and trademarks, securing ownership of IP, transferring IP through licenses and assignments, enforcing and defending IP rights, and resolving IP disputes;
• Dispute resolution including contractual disputes about goods/services, shareholder and director disputes, IP disputes, and landlord/tenant disputes;
• Company & personal insolvency; and
• Debt recovery and Money Claims Online Training

ATC CEO Raisa McNab welcomes the new partnership with open arms. “Language service companies occupy a very distinct niche of cross-border trade in services, and quite often it can be challenging to work with commercial legal partners who do not have an understanding of our industry. I’m delighted for the ATC to be able to recommend a trusted partner who is willing to go the extra mile to tailor their services to LSCs needs.”

Eloise Bailes, Consultant Solicitor at Bailoran, is looking forward to working with ATC member companies. “Our way of working is very much based on finding the right solutions and support for our clients. Terms and conditions, intellectual property, debt recovery and dispute resolutions can be daunting to address without legal support, and through our partnership with the ATC we are able to focus our understanding of the challenges language service companies face, and provide a highly-customised service.”

• Terms and conditions blog discusses the importance of terms and conditions and how a business can make sure its T&Cs are the ones that count in a contract.
• Artificial Intelligence & the law blog discusses some of the legal concerns relating to artificial intelligence, in particular in relation to copyright law. The article was written in April ’23 so there has been some development in this area of law since then, however, the concerns and background remain the same.
