Intellectual Property Litigation
Our dedicated and knowledgeable team have expertise to enable us to advise and if necessary represent you in any contested litigation in relation to:
- Copyright
- Unregistered and/or registered design right
- Trademarks
- Patents
- Trade secrets
- The alleged misuse of confidential information
The nature of intellectual property and the relationship between protection and enforcement of rights is such that there is often an overlap between non-contentious and contentious work. For example many potentially contentious enforcement issues can be resolved by the provision of appropriate worded undertakings at an early stage.
Accordingly the Litigation Department works closely with the intellectual property team within the Company Commercial Department to ensure that all clients obtain the most rounded and commercial advice possible in all the circumstances.
