Introducing our new service for startups.
Brand & IP Protection Mini Roadmap.
Entrepreneurs, start-ups and small businesses all have one thing in common – an incredible investment of time, energy and creativity into the creation of their brand. It makes sense to protect the heart of your business – your intellectual property – right from the start.
The Brand & IP Protection Mini Roadmap has been created for the burgeoning brands seeking legal guidance that cuts through the confusion and gives you clear, straightforward advice tailored for your emerging business.
Designed as a ‘starter session’ for startups and scaling small business owners taking the first step towards proactive and strategic brand protection, the Brand & IP Protection Mini Roadmap equips you with all the insights you need to get started. Following a comprehensive initial consultation, we’ll create a tailored action plan to protect your brand, and lay the foundation for your success.
Feel empowered about your IP
Gain confidence and clarity about your intellectual property rights and requirements, ensuring you are fully informed and legally protected as your business grows.
Future-proof your brand
Guard against potential legal issues, and safeguard your brand, so you have the confidence to focus on growth and innovation.
Equipping you with essential knowledge
For many small business owners, engaging legal services is a step into the unknown. If you’re a first-time legal client, our Mini Roadmap has been designed to help you integrate legal advice into your business planning, demystifying the legal world and helping to prevent issues.
Proactive legal planning
We’re big believers in being proactive, rather than reactive. By engaging our services early, you can mitigate risks, safeguard your business and future-proof your brand. Infringements do happen – our proactive approach means you’ll be well-placed to strategically defend your brand if they occur.
What’s included.
