Patent Attorneys · Trade Mark Attorneys · Intellectual Property Lawyers: Wellington · New Zealand - Your IP Specialists
The firm Henry Hughes Limited was established in 1882 & we are proud to be the first firm of patent and trade mark attorneys in New Zealand.
Mr. Henry Hughes was an English engineer who specialised in steam locomotives and steam trains. The Hughes steam engine can still be seen in museums in the United Kingdom.
In the late 1870s Henry Hughes emigrated to Wellington, New Zealand. He continued his involvement in engineering, firstly in the Hutt Valley and then in Nelson, before returning to Wellington. With an interest in and an understanding of patents, gained through the experience of protecting his own inventions in the United Kingdom and his involvement in litigation to enforce at least one of his patents, Henry Hughes was ideally qualified to meet the growing need for a patent specialist in New Zealand. Thus, in 1882, Henry Hughes commenced practice as New Zealands first patent attorney.
From these beginnings, the present firm developed and has steadily expanded over recent years. We have experienced and well qualified principals and staff, with a considerable range of qualifications. We aim to provide to clients prompt, excellent and cost-effective services and solutions. All work is carried out by our principals or under their direct and close supervision. We recognise, as a fundamental goal, the need to develop and further the interests of our clients.
We are proud to have among our clients a diverse range of multi-national and New Zealand companies including, pharmaceutical, electronic, food, tobacco, and clothing companies as well as clients in the entertainment industry.
We are qualified & well experienced to handle your IP needs in New Zealand, Australia & beyond.
For over a hundred years Henry Hughes has provided quality service. We look forward with enthusiasm to continuing this tradition.
