Intellectual Property

Consistently ranked as leaders in the field of Intellectual Property, we create and retain value in your business by helping you protect, manage and commercially exploit your intellectual property rights and assets and by resolving any associated disputes. 

A commercial approach
Our approach is to help our clients create and retain value in their businesses by helping them protect, manage and commercially exploit their intellectual property rights and assets and by resolving any associated disputes. 

We always agree commercial and strategic objectives before we start working together. This enables us to implement our client's strategic objectives through effective and focussed negotiation, mediation and case management. 

Managing projects and providing cost clarity
Our pricing and project planning methodologies are refreshing, they are structured to provide certainty and value. We can work on a traditional hourly rated basis, but we prefer where possible to work on a fixed or scaled cost basis. Whichever fee structure we agree, we will project plan work so that members can see when each element will complete, the associated cost, and who is responsible for each element of the work. This enables our clients to control the project and plan costs to meet any changing strategic objectives.
