Services
We advise national and international clients in all essential fields of the protection of intellectual property. This includes, above all, strategic counseling, obtaining and enforcing protective rights, conducting searches, watch services with respect to colliding trademarks, monitoring, drawing up expert opinions and law of contract.
Strategic counseling
By strategic counseling, we do not only – but also – understand counseling with respect to a strategy of filing protective rights. We check for you to what extent a protective right for a technical invention, a trademark or a design really provides an additional value for your company. Advantages and disadvantages of an application for a protective right are not only weighed against each other from a legal point of view, but are also scrutinized in consideration of economic factors. If a decision is then made to file an application for a protective right, we elaborate a tailor-made (inter)national filing strategy depending on your company’s requirements.
Obtaining and enforcing protective rights
In our office, both for the filing of technical protective rights (patent and utility model) and for the filing of non-technical protective rights (trademark and design), the same patent attorney advises you – for good reasons: Technically understanding your invention makes it possible to exactly prepare a matching list of goods and services for corresponding trademark applications or to perfectly illustrate your corresponding design. Thus, here too, we offer technology and law from one source. As German Patent and Trademark Attorneys, European Patent Attorneys and European Trademark and Design Attorneys, we obtain German and European patents, German trademarks, European Union trademarks as well as German designs and European Community designs or international designs for you. Likwise, we defend your protective rights against attacks by third parties and attack third parties‘ protective rights for you. As far as it is demanded or advisable in infringement proceedings, we have been cooperating for years with the most prestigious lawyer‘s offices only.
Searches, monitoring, watch services with respect to colliding trademarks, expert opinions
We conduct all kinds of searches in the field of the protection of intellectual property for you. This includes searches for identical and similar marks and designs as well as novelty searches and freedom-to-operate searches in the field of patents and utility models. As specialists in these areas, we are pleased to evaulate these searches for you and to draft corresponding comments and expert opinions. We also take charge of monitoring your technical protective rights in order to keep applications filed by third parties in your area of business under surveillance. Likewise, watching your trademarks and designs with respect to colliding protective rights is part of our range of services in order to avoid a dilution of your protective rights by confusingly similar applications of third parties.
