IP law firm Redd has announced its legal team will join media, technology and brands law firm Wiggin to create what it described as an “IP powerhouse”.

From Monday, November 6, a team of 20 specialist IP lawyers will join Wiggin across its three offices in the UK and Belgium.

The Wiggin IP team is led by Simon Baggs and has represented clients in several high-profile IP cases, with clients ranging from major international businesses to start-ups.

Redd was founded in 2004 and focuses on all aspects of IP law.

“Joining Wiggin will allow us to achieve scale while retaining our absolute focus on IP,” stated Sara Ashby, one of the founding partners of Redd.

“We are all committed to delivering the best service to our clients and we are really excited about the opportunities that Redd joining Wiggin will bring.”
