Intellectual Property

Further advice

As well as the information available on this website, creators of intellectual property (IP) may wish to seek legal and professional advice on how to protect, exploit or enforce it.

Our Central Enquiries staff are available to answer your questions. We can be contacted on 0845 9 500 505. All calls will be recorded and treated in the strictest confidence.

We also take part in events throughout the country. Please check our events calendar for any events in your area. Come along, and we will try our best to answer any questions you may have.

Our expert search and advice service

We offer a service that will tell you if, in our opinion, the mark is acceptable as a trade mark and if anyone has already registered that mark, or one very similar, for the same or similar goods or services.

We offer access to a wide range of advice on trade mark matters.

Professional advice

Some applications may benefit from the input of a professional who is experienced and qualified in Trade Mark matters. We have a list of addresses and contact details here.
