Acquisition and licensing covers obtaining IP rights such as patents, trademarks and copyright, and arranging their use through licences or assignments. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates assignment agreements, IP licences, field-of-use restrictions, exclusivity terms, royalties and performance milestones, and conducts due diligence on ownership and encumbrances. They also advise on risk allocation, registration requirements with the UK Intellectual Property Office, and enforcement or cooling-off steps if a deal goes wrong.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles the complex structures and terms of IP deals, including contingent royalties, sub-licensing, field-of-use limits and co-ownership. They manage due diligence, identify encumbrances, confirm chain of title, and align the agreement with company commercial goals and regulatory constraints. The process involves drafting robust contracts, negotiating with counterparties, and overseeing registrations and filings where necessary.

Jessica Whittick

Tagged solicitor Jessica Whittick

I contacted Tozers in desperation, someone was copying my designs and I didn't know how to make it stop. I approached two firms, one firm didn't respond and Tozers did so promptly. From here I was guided through the process and given quotes for the steps needed. The work was done as specified and as quoted for, and finally Tozers acheived a successful outcome for me. I am highly delighted, especially with all the hard work of Jessica Whittick. Jessica worked on my project throughout, and I really cannot thank her enough; she was very nice, efficient, clear and proactive. It was a pleasure working with her.
