Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights in Northern Ireland
Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights are different forms of intellectual property protection, each safeguarding distinct types of creations.
A registered trademark grants you the exclusive legal right to use a particular sign, logo, word, slogan, or combination in connection with your specific goods or services. Trademarks are a core piece of your brands identity. A trademark must be suitably unique to be granted.
Patents are for the protection of new inventions. This can cover processes, machines, manufacturers, or compositions of matter. When a patent is granted, it gives the patent holder/ inventor, the exclusive right to make, use and sell the invention for a set period. This legal protection provides the holder with legal course of action against anyone who attempts to copy or imitate their business.
Copyright concerns the rights creators have over their literary and artistic works.
Our solicitors will guide you on the form of protection best suited to your business needs.
