IP in the driving seat

In the middle of an automotive revolution you need IP experts who cover disruptive technology, such as connectivity, autonomous driving, and e-mobility as well as the traditional supply chain. Barker Brettell’s clients benefit from our market leading expertise and knowledge of industry practices, putting them in the best possible position to exploit opportunities and navigate issues when time and resources are limited.

For automotive suppliers, speed of delivery and reliability are critical to meet the demands of the supply chain, which often includes significant pressure to come up with, and disclose, innovative ideas and solutions. Yet these are powerful assets which need careful protection and potentially strategic exploitation to realise commercial advantages for business and, ultimately, make money.

Our automotive team understands these demands, working with traditional automotive players, new entrants, and future disruptors, to protect IP in this fast-paced and highly pressurised environment. We understand that engineers are a huge asset to any automotive business – and because our team consists of trained engineers and scientists, we talk your language, and ensure businesses benefit from our in-depth mechanical, electrical and software expertise. When it comes to your innovation, we can hit the ground running. Additionally, our experience in the aftermarket protecting a vast range of products from wheels to tyre assembly machines adds huge value.

Our patent, trade mark, design and copyright experts provide a joined-up, seamless service to clients seeking practical advice on all their IP issues. Our brand experts have vast experience in trade mark protection for both OEMs and suppliers.

Our extensive network of overseas contacts enables us to offer a truly worldwide service.
