DLA Piper‘s intellectual property team is ’approachable and helpful’, with expertise in transactions and licensing work, particularly transactions with database and software elements. Artificial intelligence is another strength of the practice, particularly issues linked to deploying innovative technologies, as well as trade mark clearance and filing work. Richard Taylor leads the practice that is commended for its ‘practical and commercial advice’. Kate Black, Eleanor Swyer, and Marthinus Prinsloo are noted.
