Innovation covers how new ideas, products and technologies are protected, developed and commercialised. A solicitor in this area handles when to apply for patents, design rights or trademarks, and how to licence, assign or collaborate on IP-led projects. They draft and negotiate research agreements, joint development arrangements, and technology transfer deals, including university and business collaborations, spin-outs, and funding or equity arrangements. They also advise on freedom-to-operate, IP due diligence, and safeguarding confidential information throughout partnerships.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The work involves navigating IP regimes (patents, designs, trademarks, copyright), drafting and negotiating technology transfer and collaboration agreements, and managing IP ownership and assignments. It also covers due diligence, risk allocation, and regulatory considerations in licensing and exploitation of innovations. A solicitor provides structured negotiation, risk assessment, and formal documentation to keep commercial IP projects compliant and strategically protected.

Chris Holliss

Tagged solicitor Chris Holliss

We needed a locally based solicitor with commercial experience to work on a challenge. Our accountant recommended Paris Smith and I opened contact with Chris Holliss who listened to the brief and assigned Christina Spiers. The matter was heavily IT based and our initial concern that no one would understand the technology and "language" was soon overcome, Christina drafted documentation that was excellent and showed she clearly comprehended the issues. Working with Paris Smith has been a delight and provided a satisfactory outcome. Based upon our experience I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
