We offer consultation in the area of intellectual property, specialising in the protection and safeguarding of brands, patents, models, designs

 and copyrights.

Our work consists of offering services that include all technical and legal elements related to the safeguarding, management and valorisation of intellectual property.

We handle the registration of brand, patent, design, and utility model requests, develop strategies for the defence of the rights linked to the brand, patent, model, design, and copyright, and offer complete legal support in the event of forgery, usurpation, or unfair competition.

Thanks to our experience, we can provide guidance on the management of industrial property rights for brands, patents, and designs that reflect the client’s desires, interests, and priorities.
The office carries out the registration of:

• (i) Italian brands at the Ufficio Italiano Brevetti e Marchi (Italian Office for Patents and Brands),
• (ii) EU brands at the UAMI site in Alicante;
• (ii) international brands at the OMPI site in Geneva.

In this way, clearance, identity, and similarity searches have been conducted in the Italian, EU, and international spheres for brands, patents, and designs to evaluate the safeguarding and use of the client’s brand.

The office also offers, subject to patenting research and the drafting of potential patenting advice, consultation regarding safeguarding inventions in any technological sector, and the registration of patents and model requests at national, European, and international levels.

Furthermore, we provide thorough consultation for the drafting and negotiation of contracts in the Italian and international spheres, including, but not limited to, contracts for the licensing of the use of patents, brands, know-how contracts, franchising contracts, 

merchandising contracts, joint venture contracts, e-commerce contracts, non-disclosure agreements, planning contracts, design contracts, and distribution contracts.

In the area of copyright, we can provide consultation across a broad spectrum, including legal aspects, drafting licence or rights-transfer contracts, and internet-related copyright issues.

The Department of Intellectual Property assists Italian and international clients with all aspects of safeguarding intellectual property rights and copyright.

Our office has extensive experience in the legal field, assisting clients in judicial and arbitral proceedings relating to intellectual property and industrial law, as well as in anti-piracy strategies.
