Script IP is a busy and friendly firm. We were founded in 2012 because the directors wanted to do things differently.

In the complex and ever-evolving area of IP law, we’re here to tell our clients in clear terms where they stand and what their options are. So not just whether an idea is protectable and how they can go about it, but whether it makes commercial sense to do so. Our services extend from an exploratory chat through to detailed support on areas such registering intellectual property, managing IP portfolios and enforcing rights in court.

We want to protect the inventions our clients have spent time and money developing. We can also assist clients in selling or licensing their ideas to generate income.

We draft, file and prosecute patent applications worldwide. We can suggest the most effective filing strategy for any situation, whether it’s UK-only, European or international

Our patent team is recognised as an authority on a wide range of technical areas including biotechnology, chemistry, electronics, IT & software, life sciences, mechanical devices and physics.

If you work for us, you will be a valued member of our close-knit team. Your work will involve getting hands-on alongside talented and experienced colleagues, helping clients to protect industry-shaping ideas, and being part of a culture where training and work-life balance are taken seriously.
