Expert lawyers in intellectual property

An expert team in the field of IP

Our lawyers are renowned for their expertise in intellectual property. We assist our clients in all legal issues related to innovation, creation, digital transformation, and development as well as the use of technologies and innovations.

We work alongside companies to safeguard their implementation. Our innovative model, which reshapes the way our lawyers practise, is of great interest in these sectors of activity.

We provide operational legal support, regardless of where you are at in the process, in trademark, media and copyright law. We support businesses from the legal audit of their trademark portfolios and trademark registrations to infringement and unfair competition proceedings, regardless of whether the proceedings are civil or criminal.

Our experience enables us to support clients in France and abroad.

A contested title, a creation reproduced without authorization, misappropriated know-how: the defense of rights often plays out under time pressure and on several fronts at once. Our attorneys handle infringement, invalidity, ownership-claim and unfair competition actions before both civil and criminal courts, as well as infringement seizures (saisies-contrefaçon), provisional injunctive measures and customs proceedings.

Technical and aesthetic innovations represent a competitive advantage that third parties may challenge or copy. We handle disputes concerning the validity, ownership and infringement of patents, designs and models, and we secure projects from the outset through freedom-to-operate studies and portfolio audits, including in cross-border litigation.

The disclosure or appropriation of strategic information can lastingly undermine a company's competitiveness. Our services cover the protection of trade secrets, the prevention of know-how misappropriation risks and the drafting of confidentiality clauses, as well as the defense of clients' interests in the event of a breach, including through actions for unfair competition and parasitism (free-riding).

Graphic, editorial, audiovisual, artistic or software works: their exploitation requires a well-managed chain of rights, from ownership through to the contracts concluded with creators, service providers and employees. Our attorneys secure the protection and exploitation of copyright, negotiate assignment, license and commission agreements, and defend creations in cases of infringement or unauthorized use.

Over the course of filings, acquisitions and reorganizations, a rights portfolio can lose its coherence and clarity. We audit and structure portfolios of patents, trademarks, designs and models, domain names, copyright and know-how, particularly in the context of external growth transactions, partnerships or projects to valorize intangible assets.

Before any filing, a trademark must be available, defensible and consistent with the company's strategy—and must remain so in the face of unauthorized use. We define the most suitable protection strategy, manage filings and license or assignment agreements, and defend our clients' signs in the event of infringement.
