Protection of industrial property rights

Comprehensive advice by your law firm

Those who have visions, tend to be creative and realize their own ideas faster than competitors and usually stay a nose ahead in today’s race for customers and markets. However, quite often their product or business idea is copied or reproduced without justification. Counterfeiting and piracy are rising permanently, and copyrights are constantly violated – not only on the Internet. Therefore, industrial property rights such as patents, utility models, trademarks and designs play a vital role in the protection of intellectual property and the marking of goods or services.
