At McDaniels Law, we're devotees of detail. We pore over every pixel, stitch and rivet. We revel in every chamfer, keystroke, strapline, trim and line break. We make a note of every soldered resistor, chiselled groove and chunk of code. All this, to provide you with impenetrable Intellectual Property protection. Intellectual Property is a core business asset for any business involved in an enterprise, and always for some which are classed as ‘creative’. The most important first step in the protection and exploitation of any IP right is to understand what IP you have in the first place. Often IP rights will overlap with one another and businesses are often surprised to find they have more Intellectual Property than they thought. In 2005, Niall and Rozanna Head-Rapson opened a niche Intellectual Property practice in Newcastle, bringing a City flavour of legal services to the North East from their Magic Circle milieu. Now, based in Gateshead's Northern Design Centre, neighbouring the banks of the iconic River Tyne, the growing team support our national reach and client base.
