Trademark Law

Trademark law protects names, logos, packages and other features. The safest way to achieve trademark protection is to file for a registration with the German or the EU Community Trade Marks Office. Before making use of a mark, it is advisable to check whether the mark is already in use or even registered as a trademark. On the other hand a registered trademark has to be protected and defended against unlawful utilisation.

As infringing a trademark may have serious consequences, swift action is required in cases of questionable trademark use. We gladly provide advice regarding all areas of trademark law.
