Protecting your Intellectual Property
The UK has a well developed system of intellectual property law. It is a signatory to most of the international conventions in this area. Business names, brand names, inventions, designs and products can all be protected from competitors by registration. In addition, English law provides non-statutory protection for goodwill and unregistered intellectual property.
