A registration is only worth what you're able to defend. When rights are challenged or infringed, we represent clients before offices and courts alike.
We frequently represent our clients in opposition and appeal proceedings before the State Office for Inventions and Trademarks, the European Union Intellectual Property Office, or the European Patent Office.
Where a right has already been granted, we also handle cancellation proceedings — attacking registrations that shouldn't have been granted, or defending our clients' registrations against exactly that kind of challenge.
In infringement or counterfeiting proceedings, our attorneys are well trained in defending our clients' IP rights before the courts of competent jurisdiction in Romania or at the European level.
Because we typically already manage the underlying registration, our litigation strategy is informed by the full history of the right in dispute — not built from a cold start once a conflict arises.
The sooner we're involved, the more options remain on the table.
