Tara Wilson - GC & Commercial and IP/IT Specialist

Tara has over 25 years international legal, commercial and leadership experience. She has strong business acumen and a pragmatic approach to getting the job done, matched with deep professional experience and mastery of commercial legal matters. Tara combines this with subtle grit and a determination and inner strength, which makes her great to work with and very effective at what she does.

Tara currently provides support for private equity firms/their portfolio companies and growing media/tech companies, working on transactions in the UK, US and elsewhere getting results efficiently, effectively and mostly by ‘virtual’ means. This helps clients with turnaround times and keeping costs down.

Initially qualifying and working with Burges Salmon in their Company/Commercial department, Tara then spent 16 years working in telecoms and technology at Motorola Solutions. She held various increasingly senior in-house legal and management roles, including responsibility for several geographic regions and related legal needs.

Motorola Solutions provided a rare opportunity for in-house lawyers to gain and hone experiences and competencies valued by business clients, as legal and commercial roles were combined. Operating in a multi-disciplined environment helped Tara develop a clear sense of what is important in sales, procurement and other critical aspects of trading and operations. The instinct and know-how that comes from this is a significant value add to her already strong capabilities as a commercial lawyer.
