Intellectual Property

Intellectual property is the right of ownership of products of human brainpower.

Not all such products can be protected by law – a mere idea, for example, cannot be protected.  We may help you develop it into a protectable right.

But there are many rights which can be protected, and you may need our help in seeing they are protected.  In most cases that is by registration at a Registry, in the right way, but not so in the case of copyright work, which has to be published.

Intellectual property created by employees or independent contractors may not belong to your business – do you want to make sure they do?

Those rights may be invaluable to your business and you on sale.

Do you wish to retain personal rights to the ownership and grant only revertable licenses?  We can advise why you should, and why Bill Gates did.

Our clients say...

I would like to thank you for the superb and efficient service that you have provided, and I would not hesitate to recommend your services to others. "
