George Tebbutt

George is a creative and analytical thinker and applies these attributes to provide invaluable assistance to his clients. He has an insatiable appetite to understand and a keen eye for detail which is particularly beneficial for complex matters, such as opposition and appeal proceedings. He is able take such complex matters and distil them into a clear and concise form which really hits the mark with both clients and patent examiners.

George drafts and prosecutes patent applications relating to a diverse range of technologies including aerospace, fluid systems, composites, sporting goods, and digital technologies such as design by simulation, user interaction and interfaces. He also provides opinions regarding infringement, validity and freedom-to-operate.

Outside of work, George usually has an interesting project on the go – typically related to food or drink. These have included the pursuit of perfectly clear ice, the fabrication of a curing chamber and other important research.
