London

London

Europe

London is the quintessential global city and this is reflected nowhere better than in its position as a hub for intellectual property.

Our London office is located in the capital’s legal district, close to the English courts where many leading IP trials are heard. We have significant experience in helping clients protect and maximise the value of their ideas.

The office’s European and Chartered (UK) patent attorneys and UK solicitors have expertise across all technical disciplines and industries. This includes electronics, telecommunications, software, life sciences (pharmaceuticals and biotechnology), chemicals, mechanical engineering, medical devices and clean technologies.

Our trade mark attorneys and UK solicitors have extensive multi-national experience in brand selection and clearance, registration, portfolio management and enforcement.

Our London office has a thriving domestic and international list of valued clients including multi-national corporations and SMEs. These are either based in the capital or come to London for our specialist IP services.

As well as offering patent, trade mark and design right protection services, our attorneys and lawyers (both solicitors and solicitor advocates) advise on IP-related litigation, licensing, due diligence and contracts. We have a long history of successfully managing our clients’ diverse and complex portfolios of IP rights throughout the world.

Our office also has strong links to many of the universities, science parks and incubators located in London and around the south east of England. This places our professionals at the source of local innovation.
