Legal 500 UK 2023	Life Sciences and Healthcare - "Stand out partner for me has been Colin McCall, who has single-handedly helped us get a hugely complex licensing deal over the line. His understanding of the detail of licence terms and the complex background to the development of the IP was instrumental to making all the parties make appropriate concessions to getting a deal over the line, and avoiding lengthy stand offs and threats of walking away."
