We currently manage trademarks in more than 190 countries. Our spectrum of services ranges from strategic consulting, to trademark creation and selection, to the full range of activities required for registering a trademark and then monitoring for infringements. Our advice covers also all other trademark-related IP rights, including trade names, titles of works, and rights to names.
Patents
Gleiss Lutz has successfully advised for decades on the enforcement, legal validity and commercial exploitation of patents and utility models, as well as on the protection of inventions and know-how. The technical focuses of our patent team are on the automotive, pharmaceuticals/life sciences, consumer products as well as information and telecommunications technology sectors. It goes without saying that we are experienced in handling cases in all relevant technical fields such as, for example, mechanics and mechanical engineering, process technology, chemicals, medical devices and semiconductor technology. Constant involvement with technical issues in these areas and close cooperation with specialised patent attorneys as well as other technical experts ensure that we have an excellent grasp of technology and that the advice we provide is technically sound, creative and efficient.
