Intellectual Property

Our intellectual property legal experts work to protect your valuable company information.

Your intellectual property is a vital business asset - we'll help you develop and protect it

Protecting, enforcing and commercialising your intellectual property rights

Intellectual Property (IP) law is complex, and your trademarks, patents and copyright (among others) are all valuable assets. We can help you navigate the different forms of IP, identifying assets, their value, and the risks and opportunities associated with them.

Facing IP challenges with our intellectual property specialists

If your business is dealing with an IP challenge or dispute, Tees will be by your side to help you prevent, address or mitigate risks. Where needed, we can initiate proceedings to enforce your rights through the relevant body – whether that’s the UKIPO, EUIPO or the courts. We’ve supported clients across a range of sectors, from multinational software companies to regional logistics firms.

Clear, practical advice tailored to your business

We get to know our clients, their businesses and their needs and objectives. Our advice will be clear and easy to follow, covering all IP legal services, such as helping with IP strategy, audits, licensing and dealing with disputes, and helping to protect and manage your portfolio of IP rights.

Very in-depth knowledge and much depth to the team. The advice is always on point with due consideration given to cost:benefit analysis.
