Hepworth Browne attorneys all have years of experience in the traditional areas of patent, trade mark and design law, but every attorney also has an area of special interest and expertise and more information about a selection of these can be found using the tabs above.

These areas of expertise include; developing and working in an open innovation business model where companies benefit from sharing and trading their intellectual property; conducting and managing complex patent litigation in Europe; creating a bespoke visual ‘map’ that allows companies to see their patent portfolio in a new way that highlights any gaps in protection or potential for commercial opportunities; clarifying and creating certainty in issues of ownership of intellectual property; and patenting those inventions on the very edge of patentability, such as software and business methods.
