At A.A.Thornton & Co., we work closely with UK corporations and multinationals. Our role can be one of liaising with your own in-house intellectual property specialists or functioning as an integrated IP department, as and when needed. 

Either way, we are able to provide fast, clear, professional advice and assistance, across all IP areas and at competitive rates. Areas covered include patents, trade marks, designs and domain names. We also have an Information Services department that handles patent searches, document supply and library services on behalf of the practice and its clients.  

All of our services are totally flexible and can be tailored to your particular requirements. This can include advising from the initial concept, through the technical and marketing stages, to the eventual grant. We can also advise on infringement issues that might arise and, in the event of litigation, liaise with legal Counsel.

Following grant, we can provide a portfolio management service to ensure that all your IP interests remain relevant to your current business needs.

Although based in the UK, we have links to an extensive network of overseas associates. This enables us to provide the same scope of professional advice and services throughout the world.
