Sophie Stoneham

Associate, Bird & Bird
I enjoy helping consumer-facing brands launch and operate e-commerce platforms, marketplaces, online shops, websites and other applications. I often work on complex international projects where clients are looking to set-up, operate and comply with local laws and regulations globally. My areas of expertise include advising on regulatory compliance issues, particularly in the field of consumer law and marketing, user journeys and customer purchase journeys. I also assist clients with various types of terms and conditions, notices, subscription contracts, EULAs, commercial contracts, influencer contracts, product/service launches and advertising campaigns.

I also spent six months working in the Consumer Enforcement Team at the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority. 

In addition to my specialism in business-to-consumer matters, I assist clients with business-to-business transactions. In particular, I have worked on franchise agreements, distribution agreements and other service contracts.

I have a keen interest in video gaming, and enjoy working with clients in that sector particularly when launching and operating new games and advising on consumer laws, advertising, age rating and other commercial issues.
