Comprehensive trade mark protection, tailored for you

Our dedicated team of expert trade mark attorneys can support your business through every stage of your brand’s life cycle, helping you safeguard what distinguishes your business from your competitors.

At Barker Brettell, we understand that a trade mark is more than just a name or logo – it’s the cornerstone of your brand identity.

From the very beginning, we will work closely with you to ensure your brand is on the right path. Our clearance searches and strategic advice will give you the confidence to move forward, avoiding potential conflicts and costly setbacks, and to fully understand the issue at play.

Once your mark is cleared, we will guide you through the application and registration process with clarity and efficiency, protecting your brand from day one; whether it is a single national application or a global filing programme.

Our support doesn’t end once the brand is registered. Through our watching services we monitor third party trade mark filings, proactively identifying potential threats, giving you the opportunity to catch conflicting filings early. If an infringement issue arises, our experienced attorneys are ready to act swiftly; whether through opposition or invalidation proceedings, to defend your rights and preserve your brand’s integrity, or whether to find a negotiated solution.

Every business has its own story, and our attorneys take the time to understand yours, offering bespoke IP strategies that align and support your commercial goals.

Whether you’re a scale-up building your brand or an established business expanding internationally, we’re here to protect what matters most, your marque, every step of the way.
