When you’re sharing sensitive information, a verbal agreement isn’t enough. Non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) give you a clear, legally binding way to protect confidential business details. Whether you’re entering early-stage talks, working with contractors or sharing your strategy with potential investors, NDAs create the boundaries and protection you need. At Jamieson Law, we draft and review NDAs that are tailored to your exact circumstances, ensuring that your ideas, data and trade secrets stay protected. We also help you understand what to do if a breach occurs, and how to spot red flags before signing someone else’s agreement.
An NDA is a legal contract that restricts someone from sharing or using confidential information shared with them. It’s commonly used when businesses are discussing partnerships, onboarding contractors, developing products or disclosing financial or operational data. We help you define exactly what’s confidential, how it can be used, and what happens if that trust is broken.
We don’t use cookie-cutter templates. Your NDA will reflect your business model, the nature of what’s being shared, and your appetite for risk. We’ll help you strike the right balance between protecting your interests and building trust with the other party.
A breach of an NDA can result in serious damage to your business. If someone leaks your information or misuses it, we can help you assess the situation and take swift legal action. You can explore more about this in our guide: What Happens if You Breach a Non-Disclosure Agreement?
Already been sent an NDA to sign? Before agreeing to anything, we can review the document and highlight any clauses that are unfair, vague or overly restrictive. We’ll explain the risks in plain English so you can sign with confidence.
Unique to you, your trade marks help your customers distinguish your business, services and products from those of your competitors. They’re a valuable aspect of your intellectual property because over time, your trade marks will build brand awareness, goodwill and trust in the marketplace. That brand recognition will help you to grow your business, so it’s important to get it right.
Copyright provides the creator with rights over their work so that they can control how, when and where their assets are used. It prevents others from taking your ideas and using them as their own.
In the UK, copyright protection exists as soon as you create something original that physically expresses your original idea.
