Brands and trademarks are an integral part of any business – very often they will be among a business’s most valuable assets. They enable the business to distinguish itself from its competitors, and its products and services from those of its competitors. Obtaining adequate and effective trademark protection, and taking appropriate steps to prevent unauthorised use, is crucial.

Patents give the patentee the exclusive right to use, and license others to use, the patented invention. They also encourage innovation and attract investment in a wide range of areas, including high risk research. Our specialised patent attorneys and patent lawyers, all with technical backgrounds, aim to bridge the gap between science, law and business.

The statutory protection under the Copyright Act gives the copyright owner a number of exclusive rights including the exclusive right to reproduce the work.

India has an official, searchable, Geographical Indication Register. The Register can be searched to ascertain whether or not the intended Geographical Indication has already been registered. In addition to searches of the Register, we conduct common law searches which include searches of the internet, trade directories and publications, and market surveys, to ascertain whether or not the Geographical Indication is being used by any third party. We report on the search results and provide you with our assessment of the position and any risk involved. Where the search indicates that the Geographical Indication is available for use, we advise that application for registration be made immediately.
