What can you offer to NAA Members?
Our patent and trade mark attorneys have significant experience working within the automotive sector and can provide strategic advice across all aspects of intellectual property, including patents, trade marks, designs and copyright. All services are provided in-house, from searching and filing through to registration, renewal and portfolio management, ensuring a continuity of approach and joined-up service. We can help your company achieve your business objectives through protection of your intellectual property and delivery of relevant and commercially focused advice.
We act for a number of global vehicle brands as well as component and specialist suppliers to the mainstream automotive and motor sport sectors. Automotive technology encompasses a wide range of diverse technical fields and our work with the industry reflects this. We have worked with mechanical, electrical and materials technologies and advised on and sought patent and design protection for technology ranging from complex engine controls to cup holders.
Our experience gives us a ready insight into how the sector operates and key issues that the businesses in this sector face, such as the ownership of intellectual property where development work is conducted by suppliers and how to obtain commercially useful geographical protection whilst controlling costs. Whether you have in-house attorneys who need additional support or if you have no specific knowledge of IP, we will deliver our advice in a way that works for you.
