In many circumstances, registered and unregistered designs can be sold and transferred between parties. They can also be used in other ways, such as being licensed for use by third parties, or used as security in financial transactions. The requirements for validly transferring, licencing, or conducting other transactions relating to design rights varies between jurisdictions. We can help guide you through the complexities of these processes to make them as smooth as possible.

If you are looking to purchase or license designs or other intellectual property, we can assist also with the appropriate due diligence investigations.
