Healthcare
The team is one of the largest outside London and members of our team have worked as in-house lawyers both in the public and private sectors.

Since the individual facets of an intellectual property strategy should not be viewed in isolation from each other, the Intellectual Property Unit at Walker Morris, has established a truly seamless one stop service, advising on all types of contentious and non contentious IP matters.
International
Seeking legal advice outside of your home jurisdiction can be a daunting prospect – you may be unfamiliar with how the relevant legal system works or what type of firm would best suit your particular needs. This, taken together with the often pressing nature of advice required, can make the whole process challenging and time consuming.

Property
The challenge of property is summed up neatly by J.P. Morgan, “I don’t want a lawyer to tell me what I cannot do; I hire him to tell me how to do what I want to do”.
