Intellectual Property Law
Secure your advantage—then push it further
Unlock the full value of your brand and ideas with intellectual property legal services that protect—and do so much more.
In today’s knowledge and brand-driven economy, your intellectual property is more than a legal asset—it’s a business multiplier. You know how to protect what you’ve built. The next step? Turning your IP into a growth strategy that flexes with regulatory shifts, AI, and fast-moving markets. One that protects, positions, and propels your business forward.
Our leading team of intellectual property professionals helps you do more than secure and enforce your rights—we hand you the keys to unlocking the full commercial potential of your IP. Whether you're scaling a startup, managing a global portfolio, or safeguarding sensitive trade secrets, we embed your IP playbook into every aspect of your business decision-making, helping you win new opportunities and stay ahead of the curve.
Work with a team that sees the whole picture
Wherever your ideas and business goals take you—across industries and global markets—our team is here to support you. With more than 100 years of IP experience, we’ve encountered every challenge going—and continue to bring sharp, forward-thinking guidance to every engagement. Here’s what sets us apart:
IP without borders: With robust on-the-ground capabilities in Canada, the UK, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East—plus strategic relationships worldwide—we help you protect, enforce and maximise your IP wherever you do business. Cross-border transactions? International portfolios? Multi-jurisdictional disputes? We've got you covered with solutions that pair broad global perspective with nuanced local market insight.
Sector smart, tech-savvy: Our firm is recognised globally for having one of the strongest and most multi-disciplinary teams of IP professionals available, together delivering a powerful combination of technical experience, sector insight, and regulatory understanding. With many of our team members holding advanced degrees and sophisticated industry backgrounds, we’ve built standout strategies for clients in life sciences, AI, tech, consumer products, automotive, luxury goods, and beyond.
Integrated solutions, built for business: IP doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Neither does our advice. As part of a full-service international firm, we bring together experts across diverse disciplines to deliver seamless, business-minded solutions—whether conducting intellectual property due diligence in corporate transactions or navigating advertising or other regulatory requirements. The result is guidance that's not only technically sound, but also strategically aligned with your broader commercial goals.
Entrepreneurial, curious, and innovative: Innovation is in your DNA—and it’s embedded in ours too. We take an entrepreneurial approach to the delivery of IP services, matching extensive legal experience with inventive thinking and winning client-first delivery models. Our Saturn platform—a proprietary solution that simplifies global brand enforcement—is just one example of how we bring innovation to life in ways that make a tangible, cost-effective difference for your business.
