Robert Manning, In-House Counsel, thebigword

“Virtuoso Legal have done some tremendous work for us over the years. They handled a case of trademark infringement on our behalf in 2017 and we were handed unprecedented damages. Crucially, our web traffic increased by 50 per cent after infringing domains were removed, making a very positive difference to our business growth.

Virtuoso Legal are so involved in our business and know so much about us, it’s as though we are all the most trusted of friends. I thoroughly recommend the services of Virtuoso Legal, especially to organisations doing much of their work digitally, needing serious protection of their valuable IP in an expanding and fast-changing environment.”
