Reddie & Grose LLP

Reddie & Grose is a specialist European intellectual property firm with offices in London, Cambridge, Munich and The Hague. We advise clients ranging from innovative start-ups and university spin-outs to multinational corporations, helping them protect, commercialise and enforce their intellectual property across the UK, Europe and internationally.

Our attorneys combine deep technical expertise with commercially focused legal advice across the full spectrum of intellectual property rights, including patents, trade marks, registered designs and plant variety rights. We advise on every stage of the IP lifecycle, from invention harvesting, clearance and filing through to prosecution, portfolio management, licensing, enforcement, disputes and strategic IP planning.

The firm has particular strength in handling complex, cross-border matters, including European Patent Office (EPO) oppositions and appeals, trade mark oppositions and invalidity actions, global portfolio management and contentious proceedings. Working closely with an established network of trusted overseas associates, we coordinate international filing and enforcement programmes efficiently and cost-effectively for clients operating across multiple jurisdictions.

Our multidisciplinary practice advises businesses across a broad range of sectors, including artificial intelligence, software, electronics, telecommunications, engineering, chemistry, advanced materials, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, digital healthcare, energy and renewables, automotive, consumer products, manufacturing, financial services, food and drink, and future transport.

A significant proportion of our work is international, with longstanding relationships spanning North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. We are regularly instructed by overseas law firms, in-house legal teams and innovative businesses seeking specialist intellectual property expertise before the UKIPO, EPO and EUIPO.

What distinguishes Reddie & Grose is our collaborative, partner-led approach. We invest time in understanding each client's technology, commercial objectives and competitive landscape, enabling us to deliver pragmatic, commercially focused advice tailored to their individual needs.
