Strategy

We work closely with our clients to ensure that we understand their patent strategy. For clients who are new to the world of intellectual property, for example, we will discuss their business aims and try to establish a sensible IP strategy that is appropriate to those aims.

Our pragmatic patent attorneys are experienced at advising clients on the different types of intellectual property protection that may be useful to them, whether this is patents, trade marks, registered designs or other rights. For some inventions, it can be preferable to keep the key features confidential.

We will also help you to select the countries where protection would be most useful, and employ our deep experience of obtaining patents in those countries to achieve results that answer your business needs.

We can also advise you on the benefits of building a strategy covering improvements to your initial inventions in order to maximise both the breadth and duration of protection you can obtain.
