BRANDING

You've got a clever name for your new product?  Great!  But is someone else using it already?  What about the domain name?  We'll explain the risks associated with choosing a new brand, check what's out there already, and protect your brand with a registered trade mark.

Data Protection Compliance

The GDPR has brought data protection into the spotlight.  But it doesn't need to be overwhelming.  With our first-hand experience of rolling out GDPR compliance programmes, we're well-placed to support your business needs.

Product Design

Whether it's a phone case or a sofa, you want your product design to stand out.  So make sure you've done all you can to protect it. We can advise you, register the design, and enforce your rights.

BUSINESS SUPPORT

When you're starting up, you'll need T&Cs for your website, a privacy notice, and template contracts for your suppliers and customers.  Don't forget non-disclosure agreements for prospective business partners.  We'll get the essentials in place for you.

Technology Contracts

Software contracts can be complex.  What's the scope of the project?  Are we using agile methodology?  What if it goes wrong? When do we get paid?  We work with software suppliers and their customers to turn successful negotiations into understandable contracts.

Enforcing your rights

Nobody wants to get ripped off.  If your business has been targeted by copycats, we can devise and implement a practical approach to resolution.
