About

Provided by Wardyński & Partners

We advise clients from nearly all sectors of the economy on matters involving intellectual property (e.g. trademarks, patents, industrial designs, utility models, copyright, databases). We help combat unfair competition and protect personal interests.

We have a wealth of experience in protection of industrial designs and trademarks, including renowned and non-traditional marks (colour, shape, packaging). We assist in protecting knowhow and trade secrets, and represent clients in domain name disputes.

We provide comprehensive advice on our clients’ intellectual property rights. We provide legal support in commercialisation of intellectual property.

We examine the possibility of obtaining protected rights and how to effectively exploit and enforce rights in the future. We apply for registration, file opposition, and monitor the validity of the client’s portfolio of acquired industrial property rights. We represent clients in disputes before the Polish Patent Office, the EU Intellectual Property Office, and the administrative courts.

We help clients combat counterfeit and pirated goods, in close cooperation with law-enforcement authorities. 

We have deep knowledge of the Polish and international market. Our clients include some of the world’s biggest corporations and leading Polish companies. Our advice always takes into account the business aspects of the client’s operations.
