J A Kemp‘s collective is well-placed to assist its portfolio of clients which features renowned names spanning the variety of industry sectors, on the range of complex contentious and non-contentious matters. James Fish’s workload incorporates the prosecution of unusual marks, handling litigation and anti-dilution campaigns for key clients. Fish co-heads the practice alongside Tom Albertini who assists internationally-known brands with trade mark and design clearance, prosecution and enforcement, as well as in dispute contexts. Aaron Newell is noted for his ‘professionalism, expertise and dedication’ and specialises in domain name dispute management matters, while Charlotte Stirling advises on both domestic and cross-jurisdictional portfolios. Ben Mooneapillay has over 25 years’ experience in trade mark matters and is a noteworthy practitioner, as is Oxford-based Scott Gardiner.
