During the first six months of his pupillage, Joseph has gained experience across Chambers’ core areas of practice including trade marks (from pharma to football boots), passing off, copyright (in particular music copyright and works of artistic craftsmanship), performers’ rights, registered and unregistered designs (fashion, jewellery and furniture), patents (shelving and wearable smart tech), and breach of confidence/licensing of confidential information. He has also gained experience in a variety of procedural and substantive applications.

Joseph joined Hogarth as a pupil after a career as an academic and musician. He has followed undergraduate, master’s and doctoral degrees in music from the University of Oxford with distinctions in the GDL and Bar Course from City University of London, for which he was awarded both of Lincoln’s Inn’s most prestigious scholarships.
