Working with you
We believe that one size does not fit all when it comes to delivering excellent client service and comprehensive advice; and we believe that the best client service is one that is constantly being improved and adapted to meet new needs. As a leading IP firm in the UK and Europe, our service is about people, not just the intellectual property itself. That means responding to our clients with thought, care and understanding. We want people to choose us and stay with us because they know we will work with our clients, not just for them.
Our UK and European attorneys deliver a first-rate service by listening to you. We want to learn about your business, your sector and your commercial objectives. We approach client relationships with a long-term view and we work towards building a partnership with you. We want each client to feel that we are an extension of their team and the “go to” for any IP need, however large or small. We make it a priority to ensure that we set up ways of working with you which dovetail completely with your individual requirements. Clients demand creativity, commercial solutions and value. We work with the determination to go beyond these traditional needs. We aim to provide you with peace of mind and prosperity by offering relevant and cost-effective advice based on a sound understanding of your commercial business and legal needs.
This may sound obvious, but matching the right attorneys to appropriate tasks is fundamental to delivering value to our clients. The patent or trade mark attorney must have suitable levels of experience and skills to match your company. Over-resourcing will affect a client’s bill, while under-resourcing will put strain on the entire process. Both reflect badly on us. Instead, we maintain our excellent level of client care through our human resources strategy which ensures that all patent or trade mark attorneys, from trainees to partners, understand and are committed to delivering the best possible advice and client service.
Client care & testimonials
We know that it makes business sense to get to know our clients and to build our services around their needs. For us, our service is about people, not just about IP. That means responding to you with commercial understanding as well as with technical and legal expertise.
That’s precisely why we have invested in a client feedback programme to highlight what excellent service means to our clients and how we can best respond to their changing needs. An independent agency carried out the research using the indicators that matter to our clients. The research measured our service against drivers of outstanding client service and it has, for the first time, allowed us to benchmark ourselves accurately against others.
The answers gave us insight into what our clients want from us. Whilst there is a great deal that we are doing right, there are always areas we can improve upon. In response to the feedback, we have created a plan to ensure that we maintain and improve upon the service we offer so that we keep our reputation for delivering exceptional client care.
