What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor identifies the precise IP rights at stake, evaluates potential infringement or misappropriation, drafts and negotiates settlements or licensing agreements, and conducts or defends court actions in the Intellectual Property Enterprise Court, High Court or other tribunals. They manage evidence, expert reports on validity and scope, and strategic choices around interim relief, damages or injunctions, while coordinating with technology and commercial teams.
