We seek to manage and mitigate risk and to maximise the return from intellectual property (IP) assets for the benefit of our clients. We advise on all aspects of the creation, exploitation and enforcement of IP rights.

We handle:

• disputes covering the full spectrum of intellectual property rights - these range from patent actions to all forms of dispute relating to trade marks, passing off, copyright, database rights, design rights and breach of confidence claims.
• IP related agreements - these include trademark licensing, distribution agreements, sponsorship agreements and franchising deals. We also provide strategic advice in managing and commercialising patent and trade mark portfolios.
