We are delighted to announce the promotion of three senior
associates to partner, and the promotion of two associates to senior
associate, as part of our ongoing investment in the development of
talented people within our firm.
New partners and
senior associates at
Withers & Rogers
The three newly-appointed partners are
Richard Worthington, Stuart Latham and
Michael Jaeger. Richard is a member of the
firm’s Advanced Engineering group and is
also head of our Designs practice group.
Both Stuart and Michael are members
of the firm’s Electronics, Computing &

Richard is based in Bristol and has
considerable expertise advising on
intellectual property matters in fields
such as mechanical engineering, with
a particular emphasis on aerospace
and defence, automotive, clean
energy, packaging and medical device
technologies. With a background in
engineering and a keen eye for design
aesthetics, Richard also advises a wide
range of clients about how to use
registered and unregistered design
right protection either to supplement
an existing patent portfolio or as the
backbone of their IP strategy.
Also in our Bristol office, Stuart advises
businesses about how to protect a
wide range of innovations - from high-
tech electronics and communications
technologies to complex mechanical
devices. Among his specialist areas
of interest are oil and gas exploration
technologies.
London-based Michael Jaeger has
extensive experience advising businesses
on how to protect their IP in the high-tech
areas of telecommunications, prosthetics,
electronic audio visual and computer-
based technologies as well as mechanical
inventions. In particular, Michael has run
seminars advising businesses about how
to take advantage of the UK’s Patent Box
regime.
Our two new senior associates are Helen
Henderson and Kate Hillis, both based
in our Bristol office. Helen is a biotech
specialist with a particular interest in
genetic engineering, cell biology and
diagnostics, whilst Kate is a member
of our advanced engineering group
specialising in mechanical technologies,
with a particular interest in aerospace and
defence.
As chairman Karl Barnfather explains, “We
are continuing to grow strongly as a firm and
we have chosen to make these promotions
in recognition of the pivotal role these
individuals perform every day in advising
clients and promoting our breadth and depth
of expertise externally”.
