Advising

We are highly skilled at counseling our clients on how best to secure their intellectual property rights in the most advantageous and cost-effective manner, whether it be through patents (design or utility models), trade marks, trade dress, copyrights, domain names, trade secrets, covenants not to compete or other restrictive covenants. We are also proficient at rendering high-quality independent legal opinions relating to the validity or infringement/non-infringement of our clients’ intellectual property, or that of others, including performing “freedom to practice” or “clearance” analyses of products, methods and packaging, and providing our clients with “design around” advice, so that potential conflicts can be avoided.

In providing our service we are always willing to cooperate with your other professional advisers whether legal, financial or technical in the field of Intellectual Property.

Naturally, we will keep you informed of the progress and any necessary action taken in relation to all matters that you have entrusted to our care.

We have also set high standards in terms of the advice we give. We believe you should receive advice which:

• can be understood immediately;
• is provided in good time to meet your commercial requirements;
• is reasonably and competitively priced.

We can advise on all aspects of intellectual and industrial property.
