Intellectual Property

Helping companies and individuals protect or assert their intellectual property rights.

Ideas. Otherwise known as intellectual property, they’re often at the very core of a business, defining its uniqueness and its value. It’s therefore essential to protect them from unauthorised use, copying and theft. Failing to do so can result in major, even fatal, damage to a business. But protecting intellectual property is not always easy. Understanding how, or if, information in the public domain may be used can be difficult.

But we can help. We can advise you on all aspects of dealing with attempts to exploit or abuse your intellectual property rights, whatever the subject matter involved, from brand names and product designs to source code and confidential information. Taking fast, informed and legally watertight action in the event of a suspected infringement is critical to effective protection. Equally, if you’re accused of infringing someone else’s intellectual property rights, we can help you understand your options and formulate a strategy for defence.

In both cases, expert knowledge of the law relating to intellectual property rights, together with experience in understanding the commercial realities of protecting such rights, is key to fast, effective action. We have this expert knowledge and experience. We offer bespoke, practical and affordable strategies for resolving potentially expensive and time-consuming disputes, whatever their nature or complexity.
