Intellectual Property Law
Our team offers a comprehensive range of services in intellectual property law, covering trademarks and domain names, designs and models, copyright, software, databases, patents and related issues of image rights and unfair competition/parasitism.
We serve clients in all sectors, in both advisory and litigation capacities:
– Implementation of strategies to protect intangible assets and innovation, particularly in relation to artificial intelligence (prior art searches, filing formalities, opposition procedures, rights portfolio management, monitoring);
– Drafting and negotiation of all contracts relating to intellectual property (licenses, assignments, franchises, coexistence agreements, know-how transfers, R&D, co-ownership agreements, pledges, trusts, NFT, metaverse, etc.).
– Defending our clients in pre-litigation (seizure and counterfeiting), counterfeiting litigation (notably in collaboration with customs authorities), trademark forfeiture, software piracy, emergency measures, image rights and cybersquatting.
– Drafting and filing of applications for customs action, assistance with customs detentions and product destruction.
– Valuing and auditing intellectual property portfolios.
Lastly, having been seconded to our customers’ legal departments, our team has a pragmatic view of the issues at stake, with a resolutely business-oriented approach.
