INDUSTRIAL DESIGNS

Our firm's intention is to give our clients' advise on the best protection for their creations, therefore including design registrations. As a consequence, we advise upon registration requirements and filing industrial models and designs registrations, renewals procedures and undertake design searches.

We also advise on assignment and licensing of design rights and drafted a wide range of assigning and licensing documents. When instructed, we also register the drafted assigning and licensing agreements with the Romanian State Office for Patents and Trade Marks ('SOPTM').

We represent clients in front of SOPTM in opposition and appeal procedures and reply to SOPTM's objections as well as in front of the Courts and Customs authorities with respect to industrial infringements and counterfeited products.

Our firm is conscious of the importance of keeping a design registered and, in consequence, upon consent of the client, attends to the renewal of the designs prior to the given deadlines.

We also act in litigation cases on behalf of our clients.
