Squire Patton Boggs, whose core team is based in Birmingham, fields a team with proficiencies that span alcohol, entertainment and late-night food sales licensing issues, both in relation to new licensing applications and strategic advice relating to potential hearings due to objections. While the practice more broadly is especially catered to the hotel sector, assisting the largest independent hotel management company in the UK, team leader Stephanie Perraton is instructed by a particularly diverse client roster of clients in the hotel, transport hub and convenience retail spaces. Angela Hackett is another key team member.
