Mewburn Ellis LLP boasts offices in London, Bristol, Manchester, Cambridge, and Munich, and is therefore well placed to support clients on all of their domestic and European trade mark and brand protection matters. The team assists clients throughout the entirety of their brand lifecycles, from creation and registration to enforcement and portfolio management. It also handles a wide range of disputes, including oppositions, cancellations, revocations, and infringement actions, and it regularly appears before the UKIPO, DPMA, and EUIPO. Andy King took over as chair of the department in November 2023 with expertise in filing strategies and invalidity actions. Previous practice head Kate O’Rourke has a focus on the leisure and hospitality sector, and she continues to act for clients in the international enforcement of their trade marks. Other key members of the team include Jacqueline Pang and Bristol-based Rebecca Anderson-Smith, who advises start-ups and market leaders in the pharmaceutical, consumer healthcare, and MedTech industries.
