Intellectual property disputes

Your business depends on all sort of assets, not least the technology you use and your other intellectual property, such as designs and databases. The success of your business depends on protecting these assets – so you’ll need clear and expert legal advice on how to secure all your intellectual property and make sure it works for you and not somebody else.

How we can help

Our commercial solicitors have in-depth knowledge and experience of intellectual property for all sorts of businesses. We work hand-in-hand with our litigation specialists on every kind of technical and specialist subject matter, such as:

• Cyber squatting 
• Domain name disputes 
• Copyright on designs (including registered and unregistered design-right litigation) 
• Databases (including database rights) 

We can help you deal with any challenge that may come your way, from setting up protection for intellectual property to enforcing those rights if they are infringed. Some of our recent work includes:

• Claiming for copyright infringement of the text of an IT manual 
• Breach of contract on the design of a website 
• Domain names and unsatisfactory search engine optimisation levels 
• Bringing claims for passing off
