Protecting creativity, innovation, and commercial value across Nigeria and beyond.

At Matt Styles Solicitors, we understand that intellectual property is more than legal jargon — it’s the lifeblood of artists, entrepreneurs, innovators, and businesses.

Our IP services are informed by real-world experience. Our founder is not only a qualified solicitor in both Nigeria and the UK, but also an accomplished musician and digital creative — giving us a unique perspective on what creators and businesses truly need when it comes to IP protection.

Our IP Services include:

• Copyright registration and enforcement (music, content, software, designs)
• Trademark registration in Nigeria, the UK, and internationally
• Licensing, assignment, and royalty agreements
• Enforcing IP rights online (takedowns, infringement notices, and litigation)
• Brand protection and passing off claims
• Advising creatives, startups, and SMEs on how to commercialise and protect their IP
• Cross-border IP strategies for Nigerians and diaspora businesses

Whether you're a musician, designer, tech founder, or content creator, we help you secure your rights and monetise your work — while staying compliant with IP laws in Nigeria, the UK, and globally.
