Sara, a founding partner of Redd, is a highly experienced specialist litigator in intellectual property disputes.

She advises on all aspects of enforcement strategy and infringement and validity issues, and conducts legal proceedings or alternative dispute resolution for all 'core' IP rights, including a significant patent practice, designs and copyright, trade marks and passing off, and rights in confidential information. In trade marks she has extensive experience in parallel import matters. Her practice also covers related competition issues, advertising issues, and contractual matters in particular, IP licensing disputes.

Recognised since Redd's inception as a "leading individual" in intellectual property by Chambers UK Client's Guide to the UK Legal Profession, where she is complimented as being a "bloody clever" litigator who has been enthusiastically praised by clients as someone who has a "dogged determination" and is "very good on the detail as well as being a really good team player, being both helpful and committed."

Sara is a member of the Management Committee for the Oxford University Postgraduate Diploma in Intellectual Property Law and Practice, lecturing on litigation and tutoring and examining on designs and copyright.

Contributor to the Community Designs Handbook issued jointly by the Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys and the Institute of Trade Mark Attorneys.
