While TIERNEY IP does not provide Patent filing and renewal services, we have a collaborative working relationship with an established firm of Chartered and European Patent Attorneys in Ireland. We would be happy to refer on your behalf.

At TIERNEY IP we always have our clients at the core of what we do and how we deliver our services.

Complimentary Consultation

TIERNEY IP’s mission is not simply to just deliver legal services, but also to acquire and maintain a full understanding and appreciation of what a client’s business is about. All new clients are provided with an initial complimentary consultation so that we have a full understanding of what brand protection objectives you have and how we may help you to achieve and maintain them.

A Posse ad Esse – From Possibility to Reality

TIERNEY IP is a firm believer in the old Latin saying – a posse ad esse and applying it to the development of our clients’ Intellectual Property rights. From inception, we assist clients in bringing their IP goals to reality. 

How we charge

TIERNEY IP is an efficiently run Intellectual Property law practice which deliberately keeps its operating costs and overheads low. Our fees and the way we charge clients are therefore highly competitive. We always endeavour to make clients aware of the cost of a matter before we undertake work.

For most matters, we charge on the basis of fixed fees. For those matters which are not charged on a fixed fee basis, TIERNEY IP actively encourages clients to work with us on the basis of our ‘Alternative Fee’ (non ‘hourly rate’) arrangements. We are more than prepared to tailor our fee arrangements to specific client needs. If you would like more information about our fixed fees and/or ‘Alternative Fee’ arrangements, please do not hesitate to contact us.

We are based in the European Union Member State of IRELAND.
