Law firms ranked by client reviews
This area covers seeking, obtaining and enforcing patent protection for inventions, including assessing novelty and inventive step, drafting and filing applications with the UK Intellectual Property Office and, where appropriate, the European Patent Office, as well as handling opposition and appeal procedures. A solicitor practises in this field by drafting patent applications, replying to examiner objections, coordinating with patent attorneys, advising on freedom-to-operate and infringement risk, negotiating licenses, and pursuing or defending patent litigation in court. Practical matters—such as licensing, settlements and strategic portfolio management—shape how these proceedings unfold.
Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor
Patents can be complex and costly, with strict deadlines and formal requirements. A solicitor provides regulated professional oversight, ensures compliance with the Patent Rules, and can represent clients in proceedings before courts and tribunals, including the Patents Court and the Intellectual Property Enterprise Court, offering protection through professional accountability, conduct of litigation, and client accounts.
