Law firm helps Rising Phoenix production company secure funding

The funding for HTYT, which stands for Harder Than You Think, was originally secured to enable the company to produce its first documentary charting the history of the Paralympics, which premiered on Netflix last month.

Since then, the London-based producer has outlined plans to create further documentaries including films about sport and business.

James Fawcett, head of corporate at Leeds-based Gordons, and solicitors Amy Pierechod and Stephanie Houghton advised HTYT.

Mr Fawcett said: “We are very pleased to have played a small part in helping HTYT tell the story of the Paralympic Games and are looking forward to seeing its future productions.”
