Starting a business can present an IP minefield and knowing where to begin can prove overwhelming. Goldmind Resourcery has extensive experience guiding start-ups to devise and implement coherent and cost-effective IP strategies.

Start-ups often copy their competitors’ terms of business or use templates they find online. It is important to remember that these have not been drafted with your particular business in mind. They will also not help you understand the reasoning behind certain provisions, or explain anything not included in a contract, such as implied terms of contract.

We are experienced commercial lawyers and can assist in drafting a variety of different legal agreements. Due to our expertise in IP and digital matters we are particularly suitable for commercial agreements with an IP/IT dimension, such as the following:
