Law firm Foot Anstey has acquired an intellectual property (IP) team to open its first office in the North of England.
The South West-based organisation, which has offices in Plymouth, Bristol, Exeter, London, Southampton, Taunton and Truro has expanded its reach with the acquisition of Clarke Wilmott's intellectual property team of four staff, including partner Roy Crozier.
Foot Anstey's own (IP) team is headed up by partner Paul Cox. The firm acts for many national and international clients, such as Wise Payments, who they advised on their worldwide rebrand. In August last year Foot Anstey announced record annual turnover and alongside the appointment of a director at professional services giant PwC as its new finance boss.
