Intellectual property is a term referring to a number of legal rights over artistic and commercial creations.  Under intellectual property law owners are granted certain exclusive rights to property such as music, literacy and artistic works, discoveries and inventions, and words, phrases, symbols and designs.  Common types of intellectual property include copyrights, trademarks, patents and industrial design writes.

We also act on clients behalf to enforce their intellectual property rights should any person attempt to infringe on their rights.  This includes instituting proceedings for breach of copyright, breach of trademarks and passing off.
