Louise O'Hara

Louise O'Hara is a Senior Associate in the Intellectual Property Group based in London. Her primary practice area is Intellectual Property Law.

She has experience in a broad range of intellectual property matters, from large-scale patent litigation to smaller brand-enforcement matters. She has been involved in a broad range of contentious and non-contentious intellectual property matters, principally concerning patents, trade marks and copyright.

She has worked with clients across a variety of sectors, including IT and telecommunications, retail and consumer, and media and entertainment, and understands how to tailor her work product to the type of business she is acting for and the type of instruction given.

Many of the matters on which she works involve a cross-border element, which she particularly enjoys. She has a good relationship with international colleagues and understands the nuances between different jurisdictions' approaches to solving problems, allowing her to co-ordinate the delivery of international advice in a way that is easily digestible and efficient.

She also contributes to various legal publications, including the Journal of the Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys (CIPA) and the firm's 'DesignWrites' and 'MediaWrites' publications.
