Manches

Manches is a major commercial law firm, with offices in Oxford, Reading and London. We have a national reputation as one of the leaders in life sciences law and, with over a dozen solicitors specialising in this sector, we have the largest life sciences team in the South East (outside of London). We act for over 60 companies in life sciences, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, healthcare, and medical devices, as well as a number of universities and research institutions.

We have acted for some of the more prominent regional biotech companies for many years, advising on their often highly complex legal requirements, including:

• corporate structures and funding
• start-ups
• research and framework agreements
• spin-outs and joint ventures
• protection and exploitation of intellectual property rights
• in-licensing and out-licensing
• clinical trials
• supply and distribution agreements
• dispute resolution
• employee issues
• property requirements

The regional biotech market is increasingly active, with a good number of new companies spinning out from local universities and research institutes and existing companies active in collaborations and licences.

Clients state that we offer a winning combination of in-depth sector knowledge and experience, accessibility and lower, regional charging rates.  We publish a periodic newsletter, BioBrief. Click here to subscribe.
