UK Trade Mark Registration
A UK trade mark gives you exclusive rights across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland for ten years, renewable indefinitely. We handle the entire lifecycle — from pre-filing clearance searches against the UKIPO register, through Nice classification and specification drafting, to responding to examination reports and securing registration. We also file as a UK address for service, so you never miss a statutory deadline.
What this covers
- Pre-filing clearance search against the UKIPO register
- Nice classification and specification drafting
- Examination report and objection response
- UK address for service and renewal monitoring

EU Trade Mark (EUTM)
An EU Trade Mark from EUIPO protects your brand across all 27 member states with a single filing, a single fee structure and a single prosecution. We advise on whether an EUTM or a bundle of national filings suits your commercial footprint, handle the application end to end, and manage oppositions. Where you need reach beyond Europe, we extend protection internationally through the Madrid Protocol.
What this covers
- Single filing covering all 27 EU member states
- National-filing vs EUTM strategy advice
- Opposition filing and defence
- Madrid Protocol international extension

US Trade Mark & USPTO
The United States is the single largest market for most of our clients, and USPTO practice differs sharply from the UK and EU. We prepare use-in-commerce and intent-to-use filings, respond to office actions including descriptiveness and likelihood-of-confusion refusals, and align your portfolio with Amazon Brand Registry requirements so your brand enforcement tools actually work.
What this covers
- Section 1(a) use-based and 1(b) intent-to-use filings
- Office action and refusal response
- Statement of Use and maintenance filings
- Amazon Brand Registry alignment

Trade Mark Monitoring & Watch
Registration is only half the job. We run continuous watching services across the UKIPO, EUIPO and USPTO registers, monitor major marketplaces for counterfeit and infringing listings, and track look-alike domain registrations. Every alert is triaged by a human attorney with a recommended course of action, so you act on what matters and ignore the noise.
What this covers
- UKIPO, EUIPO and USPTO register watching
- Marketplace counterfeit monitoring
- Domain and look-alike brand tracking
- Attorney-triaged alerts with recommended action

Enforcement & Dispute Resolution
When a conflicting application is filed or an infringer starts trading on your goodwill, speed decides the outcome. We handle opposition and cancellation proceedings before the UKIPO and EUIPO, draft and serve cease-and-desist correspondence, and run marketplace and platform takedown campaigns. Where settlement is commercially smarter than litigation, we negotiate it.
What this covers
- UKIPO and EUIPO opposition proceedings
- Cease-and-desist drafting and service
- Marketplace and platform takedowns
- Settlement and co-existence negotiation

Copyright & Design Rights
Product shapes, packaging, artwork and digital content attract a different set of rights from trade marks. We file registered designs at the UKIPO and EUIPO to protect appearance, advise on copyright ownership and assignment in agency and contractor relationships, and use platform notice-and-takedown procedures to remove copied listings quickly.
What this covers
- UK and EU registered design filings
- Copyright ownership and assignment strategy
- Evidence of creation and dated records
- Platform notice-and-takedown action

Patents & Technical IP
For products with a genuine technical edge, patents and utility protection add a layer that trade marks cannot reach. We assess patentability, coordinate GB and European Patent filings with our associate network, and run freedom-to-operate reviews before you commit to a product launch so you know where the third-party rights sit.
What this covers
- Patentability and prior art assessment
- GB and EP filing coordination
- Freedom-to-operate review
- Portfolio strategy for technical products

Portfolio Management & Renewals
A portfolio spread across three or more jurisdictions develops gaps fast — a missed renewal or an unrecorded assignment can quietly destroy a right you paid to obtain. We maintain a single portfolio view with deadline tracking, handle renewals and recordals, and manage assignments and licences so your ownership records stay clean and enforceable.
What this covers
- Centralised multi-jurisdiction portfolio view
- Deadline and renewal tracking
- Assignment and licence recordal
- Licensing and co-existence documentation
