Trademarks, Copyrights, Patents & Designs
Intellectual property matters relate to the protection and enforcement of rights in brands, creative works, inventions, and designs, and may involve trademarks, copyrights, patents, and registered designs, subject to the applicable statutory framework. Professional work under this head may include advisory and documentation for creation and protection of IP rights, prosecution and maintenance of registrations, and proceedings before competent authorities and courts where maintainable.
Work typically includes assessment of the nature of the IP right involved and the supporting record; preparation, review, and filing of applications and responses before the appropriate registry/authority; and handling of opposition, rectification/cancellation, renewal, and allied proceedings, as applicable. Transactional support may include drafting/review of licensing, assignment, and permitted-use arrangements, along with ownership and use documentation. Where infringement or misuse is alleged, work may include issuance of appropriate notices, negotiation/settlement interface where legally permissible, and institution/defence of proceedings seeking injunctions or other reliefs before competent forums, subject to jurisdiction and maintainability.
