Trade marks, creative works and trade secrets often lie at the heart of a business. Lisa helps businesses and creators protect and enforce their intellectual property and, where necessary, defend it in court. She also maintains a broad civil litigation practice.
The full scope of soft IP
Lisa’s practice covers copyright, trade mark law, trade name law and the protection of trade secrets. She advises on registration and portfolio matters, assesses infringement risks and takes action when a work, trade mark or trade name is copied or a confidential business asset is at risk of disclosure. Whether the issue concerns copied designs, unauthorised reuse of content, conflicting trade names or a departing employee with sensitive know-how, Lisa develops an approach that is legally sound and commercially workable.
Civil litigation
Alongside her IP practice, Lisa acts in a wide range of civil proceedings. She assists entrepreneurs and businesses in commercial and contractual disputes. In court, she combines a sharp analysis with a clear overview: first identifying the core of the dispute, then choosing between firm negotiations and further litigation where that best serves the commercial interest.
International network
As an active member of the International Association of Young Lawyers (AIJA), Lisa maintains close relationships with fellow lawyers both within and outside Europe. This network is valuable in cross-border enforcement matters, parallel proceedings in several jurisdictions and international commercial disputes, where the ability to work swiftly with local experts often makes the difference.
Personal and committed
Lisa is direct, approachable and pragmatic. She translates complex questions into clear choices and remains involved until the matter is resolved, whether at the negotiating table or in court. For entrepreneurs and creators seeking a lawyer with incisive legal analysis and an understanding of what is commercially at stake, she is a trusted adviser and advocate.
