Each business has its own set of requirements, and as such we treat each client individually, tailoring services to specific client needs. At Hargreaves Elsworth we believe that advice on intellectual property matters must be of commercial value. Therefore, before advising on any specific issue we must first understand our client's business. To facilitate this we usually meet our clients at their places of business, and spend time discussing their business and the background to any particular issue. Experience shows that such time is rarely wasted. To ensure that a personal and uniform service is delivered, each client is assigned a specific patent attorney with overall responsibility for that client’s work. Whilst other members of the practice may be brought in where specific advice is required, all advice is delivered to the client by the assigned attorney, thereby ensuring that no advice is given without the background knowledge of the client’s business. Fees: The practice charges what it believes to be competitive fees. Charging methods are flexible, and on agreement with a client can be by the hour, by the day, or a fixed or capped fee for a specific task or series of tasks.
