European IP Expertise for US Businesses and Attorney Firms
Five Zero IP provides experienced UK and European patent, trade mark and design expertise, together with IP strategy, portfolio management and operational support.
We work with US companies, universities, research organisations and IP law firms, complementing their existing resources with responsive, cost-effective support across Europe.
Whether you need assistance with a specific patent or trade mark matter, management of a European portfolio, or ongoing support for European subsidiaries and R&D teams, we tailor our services to your requirements and existing arrangements.
For US Businesses and In-house IP Teams
Expanding into Europe or managing an established European IP portfolio can involve complex legal, procedural and operational requirements.

European portfolio management — coordinated records, deadlines, renewals, reporting and administrative support.
