Offering a ‘very personal service’, the practice at Howes Percival LLP was recently bolstered by its acquisition of Oxford-based specialist commercial, IP and media law firm, Maier Blackburn. The firm has in-depth experience of the creative industries and merchandising issues, as well as the technology and manufacturing sectors. Described as ’engaging, efficient and thorough‘, Cathleen Blackburn is known for her expertise in cross-border copyright issues in the academic publishing space, while Steven Maier has expertise in IP disputes; both are based in Oxford. Practice head James Howarth, based across Milton Keynes and Oxford, is another experienced litigator with a background in the publishing and high-tech manufacturing spaces.
