I am an expert in intellectual property (IP) and I help SMEs and individuals identify, protect, manage and monetise their IP. I have specialised in patents since 2012, working initially for the Intellectual Property Office (the Patent Office) as a Patent Examiner for seven years.Making the most of your IP can be complicated and very expensive, and my goal is to make the benefits of a well-managed IP portfolio accessible to everyone. I established Robertson IP in order to make the intellectual property system more accessible to individual entrepreneurs and small businesses.We provide a flexible and comprehensive IP service, with unrivalled speed and prices. Our small team of former patent examiners has dealt with thousands of patent applications over fifteen years and is focused on delivering the best possible value for money to the customer. We make sure that no customer commits any money to a project without the information they need to make the best decision for their business. We strive to make sure that no one ever receives an unexpected bill from Robertson IP.We offer the following services:🔎 Patent searching – as former patent examiners we have performed thousands of patent searches and subscribe to the best commercial databases.📃 Patent application preparation and filing – this requires legal and technical expertise, and we have both.📩 Responding to objections from the Patent Office – we used to be the ones making the objections, so we know how to respond, obtaining the best protection possible for your invention.✔️ Trade mark registration for your brands and logos.📐 Design registration for your new products and patterns.🏢 IP audits – every business should have an IP audit to identify opportunities for growth, and the UK government offers funding to pay for it.🌍 Worldwide IP services – we manage international IP filings and portfolios.If you have an idea and don't know how to take it further, book a free consultation with me and I will guide you through your options. 💬 Send me a DM here on LinkedIn📧 Email me at christopher@patenthelp.co.uk 💻 Book a free consultation on our website www.patenthelp.co.uk I have a masters degree in physics from the University of Durham and a post-graduate diploma in IP law from the University of South Wales. I also spent two years studying philosophy at the Catholic University of Louvain in Belgium. Away from work, I enjoy spending time with my family, a challenging game of chess and keeping up with the latest developments in technology.
