Intellectual Property Law

Our professional team of quality Intellectual Property solicitors provide expert advice on a full range of Intellectual Property services ranging from trademarks, copyrights, and patents to registered designs and trade secrets.

In an increasingly knowledge-driven business environment, intellectual property (IP) is a key consideration in day-to-day business decisions. Intellectual property is one of the key considerations effecting all IT-enabled companies and knowledge-based industries. The exploitation, protection and enforcement of IP rights especially in high-tech companies is a key aspect of a company's measure of success or failure.

Few businesses have the luxury of ignoring the shift in the way the world does business and the emphasis on delivering value not just from physical assets but from intangible capital.

Our solicitors specialise in:

commercialising intellectual property rights, which includes copyright, patents, trade marks, anti-counterfeiting & piracy, digital rights management, know-how, confidential information, and trade secrets.
securing IP rights, such as buying and selling intellectual property rights, auditing IP assets, structuring licensing strategies, negotiating and drafting contracts, advising on joint ventures, advising on competition law, framework distribution and agency agreements.
brand protection, such as trade mark and design registrations in Europe and the UK, and implementing anti-piracy measures.
enforcing intellectual property rights, by detecting and preventing infringements of rights and using alternate dispute resolution methods and commercial litigation. Also, implementation of anti-counterfeiting programmes to mitigate against the effect of counterfeiting.
