How Do IP Lawyers Protect My Intellectual Property Trademark? - Law

Having created a unique brand name or product name for your business just think about how you would feel if someone stole this and used it to market their business.

Have you consider this important and valuable business asset called Intellectual Property (or 'IP')? What have you done to protect your trademark from copying or theft?

Or have you simply used your PC symbol for trademark: and assumed this will suffice as a benchmark for UK Intellectual Property?

Unfortunately this does not afford you any legal protection for your trademark. Getting the right documents drafted will be one of the first things your experienced IP solicitors will do for you.

Without legal protection, there is nothing to prevent one of your competitors snatching your trademark from you and using it quite freely for their own gain. Irrelevant of how aminable your competitors are - it is possible that you work on good terms and see each other often at networking events. You may even be in partnership with them bringing in mutual custom.

Well, don't be fooled that they wouldn't dream of taking something that they see on free offer and that is not legally protected. The business you currently do with them may be worth losing for the gain they might get from a prized possession that they are eager to acquire.

Your competitor may think ahead and instruct their own IP lawyer and get advice on registering your trademark as their own.

Trademarks are valuable and their loss or theft can badly affect the value of your business. Having no enforceable intellectual property is likely to also adversely impact any licensing opportunity for your company brand.

IP Lawyers can help you to review, improve, create and protect a distinctive trademark or brand. He will advise on registration procedures, clearance and searching, possibly worldwide. Your intellectual property solicitors will audit all of your IP and find the best ways of protecting your trademarks. A strategy for global filing may well be advised and support given to you in the event of an application for prosecution.

Think about what would happen if the other organisation denied the infringement? Specialist intellectual property solicitors will have access to all the knowledge and resources to make sure any claims of infringement are fought and you can defend your IP rights.
