Important distinction

Commercial advice, not legal representation

Licensing analysis, entitlement reviews, optimisation work, renewal preparation, licensing risk assessment and audit preparation support are commercial advisory activities. They are not legal representation, and we do not guarantee a particular audit or publisher outcome.
