Springbird

Firm overview:

Springbird started trading in 2023 with the team having “flown the nest” from Stephenson Law. Founded with the intention of moving away from a one-size-fits-all approach and providing a cost-conscious, transparent service, the team has worked with the popular brands Gymshark, Fevertree and protein-based food company Huel. The majority of its portfolio management work is undertaken on an annual subscription basis, with the firm charging a single fixed fee for the year ahead.

The Springbird flock handles opposition and cancellation proceedings as well as engaging in negotiations aimed at resolving matters quickly and cost-effectively. Firm highlights include securing settlements in multi-jurisdictional disputes for industry-leading clients and recovering damages related to counterfeit products. Despite its size, and the number of team members managing client portfolios, Springbird has cultivated an impressive client list. By working alongside A-list brands, the firm is quickly establishing itself with a unique and compelling offering.

Team overview:

Since its inception, Springbird has grown to be a team of nine, made up of attorneys, paralegals and other experienced IP practitioners. CEO Laura West has over a decade of experience in the protection, enforcement and exploitation of IP rights. Clients praise her exceptional attention to detail and reliable support.

Clients:

BeZero, Choose Planet A, Dogmates, Fevertree, Gymshark, Huel.
