IP strategy and patent prosecution for businesses that build.
We are a tight team of experienced IP professionals, including experienced UK (Chartered) and European patent attorneys. We work with founders, engineers and in-house counsel / corporates to protect inventions, to build robust IP positions of commercial significance. We represent clients before the UK Intellectual Property Office, the European Patent Office and the World Intellectual Property Office directly, and elsewhere through our established network of experienced attorneys.
We also assist international attorneys in obtaining UK and European patents for their clients.
We license market leading software tools to support the efficiency and quality of our patent drafting.
Traditionally, patents have been primarily sought to protect inventors and stakeholders in technological advances against imitators. Our objective goes beyond this; we aim to strategically advantage our clients through patents, within budgets, however we can. By way of example, this might be: - in supporting fund-raising efforts or partnership negotiations - by enabling use of the Patent Box tax regime for corporation tax relief - by developing a patent portfolio to boost a company's technological profile or to increase the company's sale value.

SOME OF THE COMPANIES WE ARE PRIVILEGED TO WORK WITH INCLUDE:
“Being brand new in the patent discovery world I was introduced to Arxa via a mutual connection, and from the discovery call Ben & I had, I was made to feel at ease about everything I was embarking on. Ben understood my asks and helped me think about other aspects to not only make my product more viable for a stronger patent today, but also for future proofing too. He has been on hand to answer questions or queries or just as a soundboard when needed and genuinely made this first patent experience and easy one for me as a client. 10/10 so far and would highly recommend their services, especially for a starter/founder like me.”
“Ben was extremely helpful in delivering my patent application, and produced a really interesting document that laid out my invention clearly. He added perspectives and explanations that made even me understand my invention in more depth! Everything was done in good time, and all my questions were answered. I would highly recommend their services.”
