Enforcement of IP Rights
We offer our clients a Regional vision, understanding and approach to our IP Enforcement services/advice and we strongly believe in developing and executing comprehensive campaigns instead of isolated raids or actions, which, in our experience, are substantially less effective. As a result, our services include every aspect of a full enforcement program, starting with our capability to offer investigations at different levels for identifying sources, thus leading to the formulation of an all-encompassing operational plan incorporating all the available actions and measures, such as:
- Conducting raids and seizures at different levels (Retail, Distributors-Wholesalers, Customs).
