Overview

As brand value and technology increasingly drive business value, the firm advises on protecting and enforcing intellectual property, and on the emerging regulatory framework for data protection and artificial intelligence. Work ranges from a first trademark filing to contested infringement litigation and advisory on compliance with India’s new data-protection law.

What this covers

Trademark Prosecution & Brand Protection

Trademark search, filing and prosecution before the Trade Marks Registry, and advisory on brand protection strategy, licensing and opposition proceedings.

For example: Advising a company on updating its consent and privacy-notice framework to comply with the DPDPA.
