Our commercial legal services
Protecting your idea
If you do not protect your business idea, someone else could take it and benefit from your hard work and innovation. Our expert solicitors help you register and monitor your intellectual property, as well as enforce ownership and stop infringements when they occur.
Confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements
To launch your startup business idea, you might need to share business secrets or sensitive information. Confidentiality agreements (also called non-disclosure agreements or NDAs) prevent other people from making these public or sharing them with a third party. Putting an agreement in place is a vital part of protecting your intellectual property.
Structuring your business
Businesses fall into one of four legal structures. Which one you choose determines how you run your business on a day-to-day basis, how much personal liability you may face and how your profits are taxed. Speak to our knowledgeable commercial solicitors to find out which structure is right for you.
