After graduating from university and completing the Graduate Diploma in Law, I secured an internship at an IP firm. That internship was my first encounter with trade mark law and practice. I thoroughly enjoyed the internship and was delighted when I was subsequently offered a full-time position as a Paralegal – and from that moment, I never looked back.
I particularly enjoy the varied nature of my work, with exposure to both contentious and non-contentious matters. I regularly support brands and business on trade mark portfolio requirements both in the UK and worldwide. The varied nature of the role allows me to apply and hone a broad set of skills, which makes every day different.
I am highly experienced at advising on trade mark registry disputes, including opposition, revocation and invalidity actions both in the UK and in foreign territories. I am well-versed in drafting statements of case, preparing evidence, drafting submissions and assisting with settlement negotiations. It’s a complex but highly rewarding process which I enjoy a great deal.
