Maddocks

Our mission is to make a difference for clients, the communities in which we operate and each other. We are known for our collaborative approach and high service standards, and for being accessible, transparent and responsive to our clients’ commercial needs. This is why some of our client relationships go back more than 100 years.

Our culture is built on five core values that are promoted and observed across the firm:

• integrity
• collaboration
• commitment to doing things better
• respect for the individual and diversity
• stewardship.

We give back to the communities in which we operate through our pro bono program, grants for community organisations and staff volunteering initiatives.

We are committed to attracting the best people and building a workplace where everyone feels they can bring their whole selves to work.

We support businesses in adopting and developing artificial intelligence technologies by combining legal expertise with practical technology insights. Our experience spans the full lifecycle of technology implementation – from procurement of hardware and software to managing and protecting the data these systems generate.

We advise clients across technology, media, telecommunications and the broader public and private sectors on integrating AI into their operations to deliver better products and services. This includes navigating regulatory frameworks, drafting robust contracts and ensuring compliance with emerging AI governance standards.

Cybersecurity and data protection remain critical challenges in AI adoption. Our Cyber and Data Resilience team helps organisations meet heightened legal obligations to safeguard sensitive information and mitigate risks associated with AI‑driven systems.

We also guide clients through complex procurement and implementation processes for AI‑enabled platforms, cloud solutions and business‑critical systems, ensuring these technologies are introduced with care and compliance. Our clients range from those building essential infrastructure to innovators creating AI‑powered content and services.
