About

Provided by ALBOR Abogados

ALBOR is a Mexican intellectual property litigation and business-law boutique disrupting Mexico's legal market with a business first approach to trademarks, patents, copyrights, media, entertainment, advertising and consumer brands. The department litigates trademark, patent and copyright enforcement from IMPI to the Supreme Court, often reaching constitutional territory.

Recent work: for Uber, litigating a trademark and trade dress cancellation dispute via constitutional appeal against a confusingly similar air-mobility mark. For Industrias AlEn, securing cross-border patent design registrations, freedom-to-operate clearances, and enforcing its distinctive trade-dress mark against copycats. For Thr3media, advising on reputational and publicity-rights risk for one of the region's most watched bioseries.

The department also advises a construction materials manufacturer on anti counterfeiting enforcement; a global spirits producer on a tequila trademark cancellation battle that reached the Supreme Court; a resort and entertainment developer on chain-of-title copyright protection for live shows; and production companies on content-acquisition and licensing agreements.

ALBOR specializes on trademark prosecution, oppositions; patent and industrial design enforcement; copyright and rights-chain structuring; trade dress and non-traditional trademark litigation; brand-protection enforcement; image rights, artificial intelligence, videogames, entertainment and advertising counsel.
