This area covers the legal protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights such as brands, designs, patents, copyright and related rights in England. A solicitor practising here helps secure registrations, negotiate licenses, draft and review agreements, advise on infringement, and manage disputes with competitors or third parties. They handle assignments, licensing, coexistence agreements, and IP audits, and they respond to enforcement actions. The work is shaped by UK and EU law, the patent and trademark regimes, and digital and media rights in a commercial context.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor handles registrations, licensing, assignments and disputes across trademarks, patents, designs and copyright. They draft and negotiate licences, assignments and coexistence agreements, advise on infringement strategies, and coordinate with UK Intellectual Property Office procedures, courts or tribunals, and domain-name matters. They also advise on due diligence and IP risk in mergers or product launches.

Tagged solicitor Daniel Fletcher

We discovered that a completely unrelated firm was attempting to profit by linking themselves to our company name and our reputation and immediately sought help. Half way through a Friday afternoon, we were not expecting to hear back - but we did. Our email was responded to and within a short time we had a solicitor ( Daniel Fletcher) on the phone, with a clear plan for how we could proceed. This was followed up on Monday and by Tuesday a forceful letter had been dispatched. By Friday we received assurances that the other company would withdraw every reference to the offending material and this was acted on promptly. All sorted inside a week. I cannot recommend Forbes too highly.

I have used Ashley regularly in my martial arts business for various contract reviews and trademark applications. Ashley is extremely professional and efficient. Excellent service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ashley and Hegarty LLP.
