Many firms subcontract trade mark, patent and design searching, applications and management to attorneys and focus on the more lucrative areas of transactional advice and litigation. We on the other hand have always been known as a one-stop shop for all these services. Working with creative businesses and in-house IP and marketing departments means that our lawyers need to be aware of every step of a brand's lifecycle - from selecting appropriate names to searching them, securing and enforcing registrations, as well as buying and selling them.

We offer one of the country's leading trade mark and design management services. We also provide specialist advice on competition law and its relationship with intellectual property rights.
