Respond to an IP conflict

Whether you have received a complaint or identified possible infringement, we help assess the position, the available evidence and the options for resolving the matter.

Discuss your project

Assess the position

Review the rights relied on, their status and the conduct in question. Identify deadlines and missing information.

Consider the options

Compare correspondence, negotiation, settlement and formal proceedings. Set priorities in light of cost and business disruption.

Coordinate the response

Prepare the agreed steps and work with the appropriate legal representatives when proceedings are required.

Before our first discussion

Keep copies of correspondence, registration details and dated evidence. Note any response deadline and avoid altering the original records.
