Intellectual property (IP) is often one of a business’s most valuable commercial assets. Whether launching a new product, rolling out a rebrand or acquiring another company, early and thorough IP due diligence is critical to protecting brand value and avoiding costly disputes. A failure to carry out appropriate trade mark searches, IP audits and clearance exercises can expose businesses to injunctions, forced rebrands, delayed product launches and significant reputational damage. This article considers the IP lessons arising from the widely reported OpenAI dispute and explains why a structured IP strategy should be embedded at the outset of any major commercial project.

A winding up petition starts a formal court process to put a company into liquidation on the basis that it is unable to pay its debts as they fall due. Once issued, and particularly if advertised in The Gazette, a winding up petition can have immediate and severe commercial consequences. Banks may freeze accounts, suppliers may withdraw credit and a company’s reputation can suffer significant and lasting damage. Acting swiftly and decisively is therefore critical. This case study highlights how BPE successfully protected a well-known UK business from the consequences of an unjustified winding up petition brought by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).
Pre-action disclosure plays a crucial role in audit negligence and professional negligence claims within the Commercial Courts, enabling parties to obtain documents before litigation begins in earnest.
