Daniel Raymond, General Counsel - River Island Clothing Co. Limited

SH&P have provided us with cost-effective, business focused advice, helping us to establish and defend a global trade mark portfolio which is right for our business. As a firm they are personable, pragmatic and commercially astute.

David Eves, Chief Technology Officer, Director & Founder - amBX Limited

Richard Turner has been amBX's Patent Attorney for nearly 25 years, from even before we spun the business out of Philips Research. He helped us to draft and file our considerable body of IP during the early development of the concept in the Research Labs and then through the new business creation process. After spin out he was engaged by our new independent company (now being a free agent himself) to continue to manage the transfer and ongoing maintenance of over 30 patent families filed globally as well as trademarks and other IP. Over the intervening years the IP has matured and had some additions - the majority of the cases are now granted in multiple territories. Richard has also aided us along the way as we structured the licensing of the core IP and evolved the portfolio to suit our software product licensing business. Over all this time, and more recently also as part of SH&P along with his colleagues there, we have had excellent support, advice and value for money. The results in successful grants of the material across the world speak for themselves, and we have been helped to really understand how to use, maintain and develop our IP effectively.

Stuart Deaton, Customer Experience Director - The Reedbut Group Limited

The Reedbut Group have been working with Richard Turner and his team for nearly 10 years and I have personally worked with Richard on patent documents for the last two years. Throughout the process we undertake with our patent submissions Richard has been an invaluable resource. The level of due diligence and support he shows to ensure that we as a business understand the application and search report actions is highly appreciated. Not only does he offer clear guidance, but he also customer focussed and very reactionary to ours needs as a business. We are not experts in this field, but with the guidance we have received over the years from Richard has allowed us to not only improve our knowledge, but also file numerous successful patents which have protected us a business and allowed us to stay ahead of the competition when it comes to innovation.

Nigel Milbank, Managing Director - Milenco Limited

We’ve worked with SH&P's Richard Turner since 2006 and to date we have been, with his input, successful at protecting our intellectual property rights. I think the fact that we worked with Richard for 18 years is all anybody needs to know.

Brian Baker, Executive Chairman - The Carry On Entertainment Group Limited

It’s very difficult to write a review of the services I’ve received from SH&P, and specifically Mr Peter Cornford, without seeming to be nothing but complimentary. However, one of our key brands was secured through a difficult and challenging claim against a major media company led by Peter and has subsequently been protected by the exceptional efforts of SH&P. I only have complimentary comments to make regarding the communication of Mr Cornford during my on-going dealings with his firm. Complex legal issues are explained in layman’s terms to allow me to make well-advised decisions which, to date, have always produced positive results. If I make enquiries to SH&P, those enquiries are responded to quickly and with definitive advice which allows me to focus on the progress of my business in the knowledge I’ve received the best value trademark and IP legal direction. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SH&P and Peter Cornford to any business that needs accurate and reliable advice as well as other legal services in the protection of IP and trademarks.

David Stevens, CEO - Guardian Maritime Ltd

Our company has worked with Stephens Hewlett & Perkins for several years on patents for our product “Guardian”. The specific partner dealing with all our applications has been Sarah Perkins. We have always found Sarah’s work on the patents of the highest standard regardless of which geographical area of the world she was dealing with, however Sarah has often gone above and beyond our expectations in her advice on the practicalities of actions to be taken to protect the patents. Furthermore she has been unstinting in her time and advice on making sure we understood the importance of being first to market in the fledgling years of our company when there seem to be so many things to do and we were unsure of the order which best suited our company structure. We will continue to leave our portfolio of patents in the safe hands of SH&P and Sarah in particular where we can rest assured reminders of renewal or further actions will be advised to us in good time. In this world of commercial insecurity in the business place it is good to know we have our commercial back protected at all times.

We recently looked at franchising our business across the Middle East and required SH&P to help us with all our documentation for the different countries.

The advice given was always clear and concise and I would be happy to recommend SH&P to any future clients

Richard Lane, Director, Corporate Services - W.D.M. Limited

Ean Brown, Director - Genius IP Ltd

I seldom write such reviews, which in of itself speaks volumes. As a former General Counsel to two large firms I have used many trademark agents. In the end, I consolidated all the IP work with SH&P. They are extremely efficient, commercial and reliable. I need a firm to take the “headache” out of managing an intellectual property portfolio. They alert me only to to commercial matters and filter out the “management” issues. This allows me to use my time efficiently and effectively. After starting my own business as a firm that commercialises intellectual property and brings inventions to market, I chose to use SH&P for my own work. I need strong commercial advice at a sensible price. This is what you get from SH&P. In particular, working with Peter Cornford is a pleasure. He is virtually always available when you call (never an answer machine) and if he is not available, someone else from the team is able to step in. I have great confidence in the strength and management of my IP portfolio while partnered with SH&P. Great people to deal with and great people to know.

As well as on top of their brief, Peter Cornford and the team are a pleasure to work with, combining a style of courtesy combined with modern day insight. We look forward to continuing our business relationship for many years to come
