Our clients have the word
Del Canto Chambers helped me with the registration of a UK company limited by guarantee as well as the corporate tax and provided the necessary legal advice in order to run the company. They also drafted the appropriate legal agreements with institutional stakeholders. Del Canto Chambers is a highly professional and very efficient law firm, formed by a great team, which allowed my company to take off. I strongly recommend their services. Recently the case has been found in our favour and we have been happy to receive a refund of over payment of interest of just under 9K€. We have been guided through the procedure by Del Canto Chambers, specifically in the preparation of the case ensuring the correct documentation and necessary authorities were in place. During the complete process, Del canto Chambers demonstrated diligence and professionalism.
Julio Crespo
I have been working with Del Canto since early 2010, and have had the pleasure of their experience, integrity, and counsel. Their knowledge of international business is exceptional, not only with the intricacies of Spain, but also the United Kingdom, the Middle East, and Asia. I have found them to be a necessary part of our global business, and I expect we’ll be working together for a long time still.
Julio in particular went beyond expectations to coordinate everything efficiently.
So a very big thank you to all the team and wish them well for the future.

Intellectual Property Protection involves securing the legal rights to creations of the mind, such as inventions, literary and artistic works, designs, symbols, names, and images used in commerce. This protection ensures that creators can control and profit from their own works, preventing others from using them without permission.
Intellectual Property Protection is crucial for safeguarding your business’s innovations and creative works. It helps prevent unauthorized use or copying by competitors, enhances your brand’s value, and can provide additional revenue streams through licensing. Moreover, strong IP protection can give your business a competitive edge and attract investors.
- Patents: For inventions and technological innovations.
- Trademarks: For brand names, logos, and slogans.
- Copyrights: For literary and artistic works like books, music, and films.
Trade Secrets: For confidential business information and practices.
- Each type of IP protection serves a different purpose and has specific requirements and durations.
Applying for Intellectual Property Protection typically involves several steps:
- Identify the type of IP protection needed based on your creation.
- Conduct a thorough search to ensure your work is original and does not infringe on existing IP.
- Prepare and file the necessary applications with the appropriate governmental bodies, such as the USPTO for patents and trademarks or the US Copyright Office for copyrights.
Maintain and enforce your IP rights by monitoring for potential infringements and taking legal action if necessary.
- Our law firm can assist you through every step of this process to ensure your Intellectual Property is adequately protected.

Julio in particular went beyond expectations to coordinate everything efficiently. Thank you!
The meeting was encouraging so we formally instructed them to act on our behalf to pursue a claim against the Menorcan bank.
During the investigation we were kept up to date regularly and after delays created by the pandemic, we finally heard the Spanish High Court had found on our behalf and award a substantial amount.
So a very big thank you to all the team and wish them well for the future.
