Intellectual Property

Research, expertise, ideas and their development into marketable products - these are the entrepreneurial assets whose protection is of existential importance! Our specialised IP practice group supports companies in all sectors throughout the entire innovation process: from the initial idea through research and development to market maturity and marketing. We also support you in initiating cooperation and drafting contracts in order to recognise legal challenges at an early stage and solve them in the best possible way.

We offer comprehensive advice on obtaining, enforcing and defending intangible assets, in particular industrial property rights (trademarks, designs, patents), trade secrets and copyrights. In addition, we support national and international companies in the areas of domain, IT and licence law as well as strategic portfolio and digital rights management. Thanks to our global network of specialised lawyers, our strategic consulting concepts, licensing models and processes incorporate transnational expertise.

We also support companies in the integration and application of AI technologies and ensure that all legal and regulatory requirements are met.

Our team has extensive experience in national and international arbitration proceedings as well as litigation before the competent authorities and courts.

We can assist you in these areas:

Research & development
Intellectual property rights: trademarks, designs, patents
Copyright law
Trade secrets
Licenses
Domain law
Personal rights (in particular online)
Implementation and use of AI solutions
