Intellectual Property Disputes

Our Litigation & Disputes solicitors advise upon all aspects of intellectual property rights and the prospects of success of claims, or defences, that arise in consequence of the existence of those rights. 

How we can help

Intellectual Property (IP) refers to creations such as inventions, designs and literary and artistic works. IP rights can be one of the most valuable assets a business or individual can hold. The infringement of those rights can lead to serious harm to any individual or business.

As a result of our ever-increasing online world, IP disputes have become more common and this area of law is complex and fast moving as a result.

Our Litigation & Disputes lawyers act for both claimants and defendants in IP disputes. We provide comprehensive, sensible and cost-effective advice in relation to the bringing of, or defending of, any such claims.

Our particular areas of expertise include:

  • Copyright
  • Database rights
  • Domain Names
  • Unregistered Design Rights
  • Patents
  • Trademarks
  • Music Licensing and Distribution Agreements
  • Artist, Media and Publishing Disputes
