William Burrell
I joined D Young & Co in 2018, having first started in the profession back in 2010. I am a UK and European Patent Attorney, with particular experience in design matters.
In relation to design matters, I have considerable experience in registering designs both in the UK via the UKIPO and across the EU via the EUIPO, and am well-versed in protecting the design of products, games, user-interfaces, and brands via the use of registered design rights in territories all over the world. I am also a member of the CIPA Design & Copyright Committee.
From the patent perspective, alongside my experience in prosecuting patent applications at the UKIPO, EPO, and other patent offices, I have a wealth of experience in patent searching and drafting. I specialise in subject matter relating to consumer devices, and also inventions relating to mechanical and automotive engineering.
I am pleased to feature as a Lexology Legal Influencer for IP in the UK, in Q1 2020 and Q4 2021.
