Aria Grace Law houses a notable treasury of horse racing and equestrian expertise. The team is noted above all for commercial and corporate matters within the unique ecosystem of equestrianism, from issues concerning turf-based businesses to those regarding professional riders, associations and the media world the sport interacts with.
Aria Grace advised the British Equestrian Trade Association (BETA) on the disposal of the BETA International Conference, which was acquired by Raccoon Media. The key area of negotiation pertained to the name and goodwill associated with the event; BETA was successful in achieving protections to ensure the conference would retain the core values espoused by BETA.
