Registration and Protection

Intellectual property rights are a key asset of the modern business – the team and Joelson Wilson regularly advises clients in connection with the rights it has, the process in order to protect these and also the way in which to ensure that the registration of the same continues unfettered.

Whether you have a trademark or logo or have designed an item or product which requires protection or registration we can advise on your legal rights and if necessary the process in order to ensure that this asset has the appropriate protection and registration.

We work closely with trademark agents and patent attorneys to ensure that this process of registration is undertaken as quickly and cost effectively as possible.

We are often asked by clients and their funders to undertake IP audits in order to assess and advise on the IP within an organisation whether there is adequate registration and protection in place.

It is often a key part of any acquisition or disposal of a company or its assets to assess the quality of the IP within the target and the possibility of challenge following completion of an acquisition. Our team of highly experienced practitioners have the technical experience of assessing and reviewing the likely impact of the lack of protection and the practical solutions to ensure that risks are reduced.
