Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions founders and businesses ask most often about IP advisory and strategy.Ask an IP strategy question01What does an IP advisory engagement actually involve?+
It typically starts with an audit of your existing trademarks, copyrights, patents, and agreements, followed by a filing and protection roadmap, and ongoing support for licensing, enforcement, or transactions.
02Is IP advisory only for large companies?+
No. Startups, MSMEs, and individual founders benefit from IP advisory just as much as larger companies, since early decisions on naming, ownership, and filing strategy are cheaper to get right than to fix later.
03What is an IP portfolio audit?+
A structured review of all the trademarks, copyrights, patents, designs, and related agreements a business owns or uses, identifying gaps in protection, ownership issues, and renewal or compliance risks.
04Do I need IP advisory before raising funding or an acquisition?+
Yes, it is strongly recommended. Investors and acquirers routinely conduct IP due diligence, and unresolved ownership gaps or unregistered core marks can slow down or reduce the value of a transaction.
05Can IP advisory help with licensing and franchising agreements?+
Yes. It covers structuring and reviewing licensing, franchising, and manufacturing agreements so that trademark and copyright rights are clearly defined, properly recorded, and protected against misuse.
06How is IP advisory different from filing a single trademark or copyright application?+
A single filing protects one asset. IP advisory takes a portfolio-wide view, aligning trademark, copyright, patent, and design filings with business goals and risk areas across the organisation.
07Does IP advisory cover international or cross-border protection?+
Yes. RegisCorp Consultancy LLP advises on international filing strategy, including which countries to prioritise and how to coordinate applications under frameworks such as the Madrid Protocol.
08What happens if IP infringement risk is identified during an advisory review?+
We advise on remedial steps, which may include cease-and-desist notices, negotiated settlements, opposition or cancellation proceedings, or civil litigation, depending on the situation.
