Provided by Crowell & Moring LLP
We offer our clients all the legal services they require for the running of their business. This includes regulatory and IP litigation support, and advice on competition, corporate, commercial and employment matters.
We have a detailed understanding of the Belgian and EU regulatory framework relating to this sector and advise and litigate on issues relating to marketing authorizations, pricing and reimbursement decisions, legislative reforms, off-label use questions, parallel import, etc. We also advise on the marketing and advertising of medicinal products, including compliance with the applicable rules and codes of conduct, restrictions regarding promotional offers and hospitality towards health care providers, internal audits, and drafting of company guidelines.
We provide creative advice on all aspects of IP law. We help clients launch successful strategies and represent them in litigation relating to the validity and infringement of patents and supplementary protection certificates and on trademark issues relating to parallel imports. We assist them with the negotiation and drafting of licenses, R&D, consortium and other collaboration agreements. We handle disputes (often complex and cross-border), such as patent, SPC and trademark litigation, using a creative and innovative approach. We are also one of Belgium’s leading practices when it comes to pre-trial discovery and preliminary injunction proceedings (‘saisie-contrefaçon’).
