Adamson Jones is a growing firm of patent and trade mark attorneys. We are part of Gateley, a legal and professional services group employing around 1,500 people at offices around the UK. We work alongside Symbiosis IP, who are also part of Gateley and a specialist life sciences practice.

Adamson Jones and Symbiosis IP are unique in the UK patent and trade mark attorney profession, being patent and trade mark attorney firms operating within a diverse legal and professional services group. Our attorneys have the opportunity to work closely with other professionals in the group, such as solicitors and other business advisers, in a wide range of areas including corporate transactions, IP litigation and international investment.

Our patent attorney practice is managed through a number of practice groups, which encompass most technical areas, and cross-disciplinary collaboration is common. An enthusiasm for technology is a must, as is an understanding of the commercial and legal issues faced by our clients.

Our clients range from small start-ups and established private companies to large corporations. The majority of our work is for UK-based clients, which provides trainees with experience in all areas of attorney practice, including drafting and filing of new applications and freedom-to-operate work. We also receive instructions from overseas firms of attorneys across the world.

We are committed to excellence in our work and we have a strong team ethos, with everyone at Adamson Jones, Symbiosis IP and elsewhere in Gateley being led by our purpose to deliver results that delight our clients, inspire our people and support our communities. The working environment is fast paced and rewarding.

We look for high calibre individuals with a record of academic achievement, who have the potential to develop the commercial knowledge and legal skills that set our attorneys apart. Our preference is to train new entrants to the profession and to instil our values in them. When we find the right people, we aim to retain them. Long term prospects for those who join our firm are therefore excellent.
