We assist clients with all aspects of patent law. Our lawyers are very experienced in drafting and negotiating patent licenses, research and development agreements and collaboration arrangements. With support from our cooperation partner Rentsch Partner AG, we can also provide assistance with patent filing, patent due diligence, freedom to operate searches and patent litigation.

Brands play a central role in the business strategy of many of the clients to which we provide trademark services; others simply want to prevent others benefiting from their good name. We advise on trademark protection strategies, file trademark applications, assist with trademark oppositions by third parties or objections by the trademark registry, administer trademark portfolios and enforce or defend claims of trademark infringement in the courts.

Giving protection for shapes, patterns and forms, design rights can be a powerful tool for protecting the work in a product. Together with our cooperation partner Rentsch Partner AG, our team assists with design right applications and registrations and with design right litigation.
