Trademarks

Prosecution and Brand Strategy

We understand the value and importance of brands and trademarks and we provide holistic advice from the birth of a brand and through its life and development.

Working in close conjunction with Patent and Trademark Attorney firm, TCBM, we advise at the outset on the availability of marks then support the prosecution process in the context of oppositions and objections. Once the mark is registered, we advise on its enforcement and commercial exploitation through licensing or transfer. We walk hand in hand with our clients through the life of their brand and ensure that they extract the maximum value from it.

We work closely with the best trademark professionals around the globe to ensure that clients’ rights are properly registered and fully protected in all their strategic markets.
