Potts, Kerr & Co.

What We Do

We specialise in intellectual property rights – patents, trade marks, designs and copyright. These various rights play an important role in bringing together the ingenuity of scientists, engineers, researchers and designers, with the investment necessary to develop and market new ideas.

Without protection for these ideas, investment can be hard to come by, and thus protection can be invaluable from a commercial perspective, as well, of course, as to provide legal recognition of innovations, brand names / logos, and designs.

Potts Kerr have extensive experience across the full range of intellectual property rights available in the United Kingdom, Europe (including at the European Patent Office), and around the world, through a wide network of trusted associates, with whom we are in regular contact.

In terms of our client base, we are proud to say that these include multinational corporations in the fields of biotechnology, engineering, computer science, software and hardware, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals and medical devices, as well as fashion houses, and a range of small-to-medium sized companies, both in the UK and abroad. We are also happy to deal with smaller clients, such as individual inventors, to whom we devote equal attention and importance.

From the tabs above, you will find an overview of the main legal rights available in the UK and Europe which can be used to protect, and profit from, inventions, trade marks or designs.
