I would like to recommend this firm. I originally spoke with Kevin Hanson and he gave me partial advice that was very helpful. I then came back some time after to seek their legal services in relation to the initial advice. Kate McCormick is who dealt with my case on the second contact and she did a very good job.

FAQs

What is an IP licence?

An IP licence is permission to use someone’s intellectual property – a trade mark, patent, registered designs or copyright – on agreed terms, usually for a fee or royalty, while the owner keeps ownership. It lets owners earn from their IP without selling it, and lets others use IP they don’t own. We draft and negotiate licences that protect the owner and work commercially for both sides.

What's the difference between exclusive, sole and non-exclusive licences?

Under an exclusive licence, only the licensee can use the IP – even the owner is excluded. A sole licence allows the owner and one licensee. A non-exclusive licence lets the owner grant the same rights to several licensees. The choice affects value, control and price. We advise which model fits your goals and draft accordingly.

How are IP licence royalties usually structured?

Commonly as a percentage of sales, a per-unit fee, or tiered rates, often with minimum payments, upfront fees or milestone payments, plus reporting and audit rights so you can check what you’re owed. The right structure depends on the deal and the sector. We build royalty terms that are fair, workable and enforceable.

Can I license my IP internationally?

Yes, and it can be a major revenue stream — but cross-border licences need terms that work under local law and handle territory, tax, payments and enforcement. Because we act in the UK, EU and US, we can structure international licences that hold up across jurisdictions. Get in touch to discuss your IP and target markets.
