The Dispute Resolution Solicitors at Forbes are not Patent Attorneys but we do advise and assist clients with intellectual property disputes. We have advised in a wide variety of cases including trade marks, copyright and design rights disputes. We have followed the Intellectual Property Office's (IPO) procedures and have settled cases by negotiating co-existence agreements.
Forbes Solicitors have advised in relation to claims of passing off both for client's protecting their businesses and also defending clients who have inadvertently infringed another party's intellectual property rights. Our dispute resolution lawyers have taken cases to Court and have also negotiated settlement including settlement by undertakings. We have successfully defended our clients' position on a number of occasions and allegations have been dropped at an early stage.
We help clients with internet domain name and cyber squatting disputes, our Solicitors also have expertise defending client's intellectual property online including web content and photographs.
We often work with our Business Law team to provide clients with an holistic analysis of what can be registered, protected and defended.
