Advice: Need Legal Help? Get Free Advice Online!
Own-it offers free (yes - free!) online advice to help you solve your IP issues. This could lead to a free one-to-one advice session with specialist lawyers!
To use the service you need to be an Own-it member so why not register now or log-in using the form on the right-hand side of this page.
How Does It Work?
We offer two levels of service:
- Check to see if an answer to your query can be found on the information already on Own-it. We offer FAQs, factsheets, podcasts, articles and events. This will save you time because if the information you request is already provided on the website, we'll simply direct you to that information.
- If your issue needs legal advice or intervention, then fill in our online advice form. We will then either answer your query online or offer you one free meeting (max. 45 minutes) with a lawyer from Own-it's associated intellectual property firms.
Am I Eligible?
- You cannot use the Own-it IP clinics for any existing legal claims or for second opinions on any legal intervention already taking place.
- Please note that the Own-it IP clinics are for IP related legal advice only. The lawyers will not be able to deal with non-IP related queries or provide related information.
- Please note that the Own-it IP clinics are for business whose annual turnover is below £100,000.
How Do I Submit My Request?
- Make sure you read our article - Doing the Rights Thing - which might have the information you need.
- Watch our "How Not to Get Ripped Off" video online which contains a guide to copyright, trade marks, design rights and patents.
- Have a look at the Own-it FAQ section - this will save you (and us!) lots of time. You can find answers to questions on how to protect and exploit your IP and how IP works in film, fashion etc.
Ok, the answer's definitely not on the website! What now?
- If the information your want isn't on the Own-it site then use the form below to submit your enquiry.
- We aim to respond to your enquiry within ten working days.
