Unrivalled Experience ... Innovative Solutions

With the importance and value of branded goods and services growing daily, we advise and help at all stages of the brand cycle, from initial brainstorming and brand creation through to launch and international development. 

 

Whilst brand protection remains the bedrock of our business, we also offer the same high level of commercial and constructive advice in a wide range of related areas, such as licensing, acquisitions and disposals, infringement issues and more.

 

Our focus is to deliver value to our clients by understanding their issues and by looking at the wider context in which they operate.  Understanding the challenges and opportunities they face enables us to create commercial and innovative solutions to meet their needs.

 

Our attorneys are forward looking and come from a wide variety of professional backgrounds and experience including private practice solicitors, trade mark attorneys and in-house legal departments.  We have advisors with first hand International experience, active members of our professional institute's Council and the Joint Examination Board for Trade Mark and Patent Attorneys.  We are also privileged to draw on the experience gained from our distinguished history.

 

HallMark IP can trace its roots back to 1886, shortly after the introduction in the UK of a Trade Mark Registration System.  For many years we traded as a members organisation under the name of Trade Mark Owners Association, providing high quality trade mark registration services to members such as Bass, Heinz and Nestlé.

 

As part of the transition from a members' organisation to an independent commercial business our name was changed from TMOA to HallMark IP in April 2003.  We are proud that many of TMOA's original member clients continue to use HallMark IP for brand protection services.

 

Over one hundred years later we continue to provide the benefits of our unrivalled experience allied to the latest in modern computerised technology to ensure we deliver efficient service to all our clients throughout the world.
