on-line searches
It is possible to carry out simple free on-line searches, which may give you a general idea of what has been already registered in the UK and elsewhere.
These searches should be considered a preliminary step you can take, before seeing a Patent Attorney. It is however very important to stress that these searches cannot be considered by any means a substitute for a full professional search, and it is strongly recommended that you consult an Attorney before making any significant investment in your I.P.
