Our Telecommunications Service
Our team advises on the full lifecycle of telecommunications projects, from initial structuring through to ongoing operational support and regulatory compliance.
We regularly draft and negotiate a wide range of telecoms-specific agreements, including customer and end-user terms, master services agreements, supply and reseller agreements, co-location agreements and website terms and conditions.
For clients with existing documentation, we provide a comprehensive contract review service that identifies risks, inconsistencies, and opportunities to strengthen your legal position.
Beyond contracts, we provide strategic advice on key areas affecting telecommunications businesses.
This includes data protection and privacy compliance, corporate transactions such as buying or selling telecoms businesses, shareholder arrangements, and specialist property matters such as mobile phone mast leases.
How We Can Help
Our telecommunications solicitors provide practical, commercially focused support across a range of legal issues, including:
- Drafting and negotiating telecoms contracts, including customer terms, MSAs and reseller agreements
- Reviewing and strengthening existing contract suites to better protect your business
- Advising on data protection, GDPR compliance and data governance frameworks
- Supporting business sales, acquisitions and investment transactions
- Negotiating mobile phone mast leases and advising on Electronic Communications Code rights
- Providing ongoing strategic advice to support growth, compliance and risk management
Data Protection and Regulatory Compliance
Data sits at the heart of most telecommunications businesses.
We advise on all aspects of data protection, including compliance with UK GDPR and related legislation.
Our team works closely with clients (and their Data Protection Officers where applicable) to ensure that data is collected, processed and stored lawfully.
We also assist with drafting privacy notices, implementing internal policies, managing data-sharing arrangements, and responding to regulatory requests, including those made under the Freedom of Information Act.
Where issues arise, we provide both immediate crisis management support and long-term strategic advice to strengthen your compliance framework.
Buying and Selling Telecommunication Businesses
Our Corporate Commercial team has extensive experience advising telecommunications businesses of all sizes, from owner-managed companies to large organisations and PLCs.
We support clients with business sales, acquisitions, and investments, providing clear, commercially focused advice at every stage.
Mobile Phone Mast Leases and Infrastructure
Telecommunications infrastructure projects, particularly mobile phone mast agreements, require specialist legal expertise.
We advise landowners, developers and operators on lease negotiations, renewals and associated agreements.
These arrangements can impose significant obligations and are often influenced by statutory rights under the Electronic Communications Code.
Our team ensures that your interests are protected, whether you are granting rights over your land or securing access for infrastructure development.
We also recommend regular reviews of existing agreements to ensure that commercial terms remain competitive and reflect current market conditions.
Who We Act For
We work with clients across the full telecommunications ecosystem, including:
- Telecommunications resellers and service providers
- Technology and digital communications businesses
- Landowners and developers hosting telecoms infrastructure
- Investors, founders and high-growth start-ups

Testimonials
Paul Hinchliffe - Managing Director, Bott & Co Solicitors
I would like to thank the team for their expertise, guidance and support throughout our transition to employee ownership. The move required careful planning across a range of legal, tax and governance matters. Simon Nolan and the wider Myerson team worked closely with us throughout the process, providing clear advice, practical solutions and reassurance. Their experience and collaborative approach helped us successfully navigate a complex transaction. We are extremely grateful.

Tim Webb, RTA Claim Solutions
Myerson have been hugely professional and supportive in providing expert legal advice to the business.

Tony Sampson , J2 Retail Ltd
Unphased by the ‘big names’ and frequently head to head with much larger firms, they have always worked effectively on our behalf as both a business and as shareholders, and have represented us extremely well in many complex and difficult situations. Myerson partners and lawyers have an excellent grasp of the commercial realities of our business – something that is equally as important as their undoubted capabilities as lawyers.
