Employer Profile

Being a leader in our field is not an accident. It’s the product of expertise and experience, underpinned by a lot of hard work.

Maintaining that position requires constant learning and improvement, the desire to set continually higher standards and the ambition to exceed client expectations, not merely meet them.

Carpmaels & Ransford has been at the vanguard of intellectual property for over 200 years. Our pioneering roots in London now extend to Munich and around the globe with long-standing client relationships in the USA, Asia and across Europe.

Our continued ability to attract the brightest and best talent is fundamental to our success. The firm provides a supportive environment where talent can flourish.

Everyone in the firm, from the most experienced partner to the newest trainee, is hungry to learn, stretch their intellect and become better at what they do. There’s no environment more stimulating for a trainee because you’ll have the opportunity to learn from a wide range of partners and associates.

We can’t promise you it will be easy. In fact, it is rigorous and demanding. However, you’ll find the atmosphere welcoming, enjoyable and rewarding. We can also promise you a training programme that is second to none.

Our firm is packed full of enthusiasts for whatever we do. Outside work we are skiers, surfers, musicians, singers, horse riders and sailors, to name a few. We believe that multi-faceted people make for a more dynamic workplace. We encourage individual talent and originality, rather than a corporate uniform.

What unites us is the intellectual energy that runs through our firm, the depth of our knowledge, our combined skill in solving the most challenging problems, our awareness of the necessity for pragmatic advice, and our commitment to exceeding client expectations.

Together, we create clarity from complexity through the application of intellectual rigour.
