[QUOTE="S'mon, post: 6193086, member: 463"] Maybe your opinion is likely to be more biased? :devil: I've seen US IP lawyers say some pretty amazing things, although it's good to see because understanding how US lawyers act so differently from UK lawyers despite the ostensible similarity of the law is very useful when I'm teaching international commercial law. The heat & passion of the US legal arena is one reason why companies around the world seek to avoid disputes coming under US law. This is very good for English lawyers as it makes us a favoured jurisdiction for commercial disputes. Edit: If your advice on look & feel is "it's all a big confusing mess", I'm not sure that's the best advice. You should be able to advise your client (a) whether a specific activity is likely to be actually held infringing in court, and for what, as well as advising (b) How another company might react to an activity, and thus what the best tactics are re use or non-use of material.
