Rob Jacob

Rob works with a diverse range of clients, from life sciences innovators and offshore construction specialists to luxury brands and consumer goods companies. He is often called upon by businesses seeking to protect, commercialise, and enforce their intellectual property in the UK and across borders, particularly where the stakes are high and the issues are novel.

He provides strategic advice on registering, defending, and enforcing trade marks - including non-traditional marks - and supports clients through every stage of litigation, from initial strategy to hearings before the UK High Court, Intellectual Property Enterprise Court, and UKIPO. Rob is adept at coordinating multi-jurisdictional disputes, having led global litigation strategies involving up to 30 countries, and works closely with local counsel to ensure a seamless approach for clients with international portfolios.
