Intellectual property
How we can help you
Recognised as a market leader, our Intellectual Property practice can formulate innovative and creative strategies to help you protect your most valuable assets.
We help global businesses navigate the complexities of IP, from building emerging brands to protecting the reputation of their entire network. We can advise you throughout your life cycle, from the development of IP protection strategies, to filing and portfolio management, to how you can maximise value by licensing.
Our multi-award-winning team is one of the largest in Europe. Clients choose us because of our strength across the full spectrum of IP specialisms, not just for main IP rights but also domain names and e-commerce; media law and reputation management; advertising and sponsorship; franchising; and broadcasting. Should matters become contentious, we also have a strong track record of protecting assets through litigation in both national and European courts.
We're bold on IP strategy and our advice is tailored to give you the competitive advantage.
Our team help solve your challenges
At the heart of our success is a real passion for our work, and a genuine interest in our clients.
Our reputation in the market means we attract exceptionally smart and passionate people who are fully committed to your success. Many of our team have previously worked in-house, giving us a deep understanding of your needs and challenges.
The size and scale of our practice means we rarely encounter challenges that we haven't come across before. It also means we can combine precedents and procedures, which helps drive efficiency and reduce costs.
Our clients enjoy working with us because we provide timely, clear and commercially focused advice. Whatever your legal needs, you can rely on us to help you navigate IP challenges efficiently and effectively, wherever you do business.
The team is broad with different skill sets and expertise. They provide us with well-structured advice and we are always confident that they will get back to us quickly.
