Trademarks & CopyrightWe deal with all aspects of world-wide Intellectual Property (IP) rights with a particular focus on trademark, copyright and patent protection in Africa, whether individual country filings like Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa or regional filings in the OAPI countries (French West Africa) and ARIPO (East African countries). We understand the challenges of protecting and maintain intellectual property rights in various African jurisdictions and therefore offer a one-stop shop covering all of your IP needs. Trade marks, designs and domain names - We register trade marks, designs and domain names in the UK, European Union and in Africa. We carry out structured searches for new trade marks before use. We deal with opposition and cancellation proceedings when trade mark applications or registrations are challenged. We manage worldwide trade mark, design and domain names portfolios for clients. Transactional IP - We deal with the structuring, ownership and licensing of IP rights to enable owners to fully exploit the commercial value of these rights. We also draft licences and assignments of IP rights. IP Litigation - We handle all types of IP disputes. We offer pragmatic advice and litigate claims, both before the English and Nigerian courts. We also handle anti-counterfeiting litigation and are experienced in obtaining and enforcing interim and final injunctions against infringers. For more information please contact info@addielaw.com |
