Stobbs IP
Stobbs IP in Cambridge ‘operates differently to conventional lawyers, working collaboratively on creative solutions to problems, providing tailored advice and strategic input, which is highly valued’. The firm advises a stellar roster of sports, entertainment and media clients, among them Liverpool FC manager Jurgen Klopp, Harry Kane’s management company HK28 Ltd, and Pharrell Williams. Principal Julius Stobbs and team head Chris Sleep are key contacts for IP matters, particularly in relation to brand protection. The vastly experienced Geoff Steward, who advised UEFA on an international ambush marketing enforcement programme in relation to the delayed Euro 2020 and Women’s Euro 2022 tournaments, is a key adviser on IP disputes. Chris Hawkes is recommended for design rights and copyright matters.
