Experience. 

Our senior team have accumulated over 70 years’ worth of dedication to IP, across a broad range of matters, gaining experience at the largest firms around the world.

Expertise.

A bit about our history

Virtuoso Legal was founded by Elizabeth Ward in 2007, becoming one of the first dedicated intellectual property specialist firms in the UK.

Liz’s passion is to make businesses (including her own) world-class, fuelled by the intangible assets that make them unique.

Ahead of the curve and understanding the growing role of IP in business growth – Virtuoso Legal now set a new standard for commercial intellectual property advice in the UK.

Liz’s first career was in the pharmaceutical industry. She then transferred her technical-scientific skills to the law and worked as an IP lawyer in several large law firms.

Virtuoso Legal was set up as an entirely new practice to disrupt outdated legal business models that she held were the root cause for the problems listed above.

Since 2007, the firm has routinely set new legal precedent, made headlines – delivering time and time and time again for clients.
