Intellectual property
Why you need protection
Launching a new brand — full clearance search and trademark registration
Buying a business that holds intellectual property — deal support and a rights audit
Disputes with competitors over trade names, trademarks and confusingly similar signs
Protection against copying of packaging, slogans, design, websites and other brand elements
Transferring and structuring intellectual property rights within a group or between legal entities
Representation in antitrust and patent disputes
Protecting the rights holder where a third party uses your brand, signs or corporate identity without permission
Protecting your work
Copyright protects what a person has created through their own work: text, photography, music, video, design, software.
What is protected?
If you have written a text, taken a photograph, recorded a song or designed a logo, it automatically counts as your work.
Protection covers the finished work, not the idea behind it.

We will help you obtain official proof of authorship in a single business day, with full legal support.
We prepare the paperwork and carry the procedure through to the result.
