Top 10 of 1,413 law firms for Research and Development Agreements, Contract Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Research and development agreements cover collaborative projects where parties share resources, knowledge or IP to create new products or processes. A solicitor advising in England helps draft and negotiate the contract, including scopes of work, ownership of foreground and background IP, contributions, funding, milestones, and risk allocation. They review confidentiality, liability limits, and termination rights, and assist with IP assignment, licences and exit arrangements. The work often hinges on project governance, novelty challenges, and robust dispute resolution mechanisms.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor clarifies who owns newly created IP and who funds what, sets milestones and fallback positions, and structures licences or assignments to protect commercial value while limiting liability. They also secure clear governance, reporting lines, and exit provisions to handle partner changes and project dissolution without eroding core IP rights.

Joe Milner

Tagged solicitor Joe Milner

I cannot recommend Joe Milner at Brightstar Law highly enough. From start to finish, his service throughout my complex contract negotiation was exceptional. Joe's knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail gave me complete confidence at every stage of the process. His responsiveness was outstanding, every query was dealt with promptly, and he always took the time to explain matters clearly and provide practical, well-considered advice. The level of service I received genuinely went above and beyond my expectations. Joe was proactive, thorough, and clearly committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me. If you're looking for a solicitor who is knowledgeable, approachable, and dedicated to delivering first-class client service, I would not hesitate to recommend Joe. It has been a pleasure working with him, and I will be using his services again in the future.

Amy Cunningham

Tagged solicitor Amy Cunningham

Was introduced to Amy through the company that were offering me a settlement. If it were not for the introduction, I honestly would not have known about her services. That said Amy steered me through the contract and acted on my behalf to get better terms. For that I am grateful and fully recommend her and her team for the clear comms and easy process.
