Blake Morgan LLP

Continuing to regularly act for universities and health boards, as well as increasingly active for media and retail companies, Blake Morgan LLP has strong public and private sector traction across a wide spectrum of intellectual property rights (IPR), including trade marks, copyright and patents. Although he also handles some advisory/commercial work (including advice on the management of large trade mark portfolios), team head Lee Fisher is best-known for his contentious work, including developing enforcement strategies and utilising injunctive relief, if necessary. Joanna Corbett-Simmons is also a formidable IP litigator who handles trade mark and design right infringements, and Sarah Whittle is particularly well-placed to advise health sector clients on IP issues, having herself spent a period on secondment at the Department of Health.
