FREE LEGAL PLAYBOOK
The 2026 Legal Playbook for UK Tech & AI Businesses
Our tech solicitors see the same legal gaps come up again and again in tech and AI businesses. This practical guide walks you through what to check, what to fix and what to put in place as you grow.
WHAT'S INSIDE
Legal gaps in the business? Let’s fix that.
Know what needs to be assigned, recorded and protected — founder work, contractor builds, employee IP, open-source software, datasets, AI models, brand assets and everything else that makes your product yours.
ee which customer, supplier, contractor, employment, data processing, security and AI terms matter as you start hiring, selling and taking on more commercial risk.
Get a clear view of the legal setup behind SEIS, EIS, EMI, option pools, investment documents and your cap table — and where problems tend to surface later.
Stay on top of the privacy, AI governance, training data, model-provider, output-risk, breach-response and cyber security questions every tech and AI business needs to keep under review.
Follow the stage-by-stage roadmap to see what matters at pre-seed, seed, Series A, international expansion and exit, with the common mistakes to avoid and practical next steps at each one.
See the gaps investors and buyers spot fast, from missing IP assignments, weak customer terms, unclear AI controls, messy records to thin data protection paperwork — so you can fix them first.
Our playbook is a general but comprehensive overview. For specific advice on your business and its needs, we recommend you speak to a solicitor directly.
