Your partner in intellectual property law
What does intellectual property law mean?
As a business owner, you invest in your products and services every day. You want to protect those investments. Intellectual Property Rights (IP rights) provide important protection to your investments. For example, when developing new products and services, branding your company, designing your website, developing software or organizing an advertising campaign. In doing so, your IP rights must be well regulated.
An IP right, such as a copyright, trade name, database, trademark or design, is an exclusive right. An IP right allows you to claim a certain exclusivity. You can, in certain cases, prohibit third parties from using virtually identical designs, names or designs. Licensing your IP rights can also be a source of income. Thus, IP rights provide value for your business.
