Intellectual property
Intellectual property (IP) is the foundation of every innovation and successful brand. However, legal processes can be complex and discouraging for creators, entrepreneurs, and companies. Our approach uses Legal Design Thinking to turn IP law into a strategic business development tool, enabling you to take control of your ideas and transform them into tangible value.
Our services are organized according to the lifecycle of your idea: from inspiration to commercial success.
1. Ideation and strategy design phase
This proactive phase is key to laying a solid foundation for your innovation.
"IP portfolio map": Together with you, we create a visual “IP portfolio map.” Through simple graphics, this map displays all your intellectual assets (brands, software, designs, creative works) and provides a clear overview of the best protection methods for each (trademark, copyright, patent).
Protection advice: We provide strategic guidance on what and where to protect, in line with your business plan. We help you understand the differences between trademarks, copyrights, and patents, and how each applies to your ideas.
2. Protection and formalization phase
Once the strategy is set, our role is to make the protection process simple and transparent.
"Registration timeline": For trademark, patent, or design registration, we create a visual “timeline” showing all steps, deadlines, required documents, and expected waiting periods. This reduces uncertainty and allows you to track the process.
Simplified application process: We handle the entire preparation and submission process with the relevant authorities (domestic, EU, or international), ensuring flawless documentation.
Collaboration with patent attorneys: For patents, we organize and coordinate with experienced patent attorneys, ensuring the legal and technical aspects of the application are perfectly aligned.
3. Management and commercialization phase
Intellectual property is most valuable when commercialized. Our role is to design this process.
Contract design: For licensing, franchising, transfer of rights, or copyright agreements, we create “contract maps” and use clear language. Visual elements help understand key obligations, rights, and financial terms, making negotiations more transparent.
Monetization strategy: We advise on the best legal models to turn your IP assets into revenue (e.g., licensing, sale, franchising), accompanied by the preparation of appropriate legal documents.
IP portfolio management: We provide monitoring and renewal services for IP rights, ensuring your strategic assets remain current.
4. Defense and dispute management phase
When your rights are threatened, our response is fast, strategic, and effective.
Dispute map: For any IP infringement dispute, we create a visual plan showing options (extrajudicial settlement, litigation), expected outcomes, and costs.
Brand protection plan: We assist in combating counterfeiting and piracy, from creating strategies for customs enforcement to legal guidance on removing illegal online content.
Mediation: We offer mediation services as an effective, design-oriented method for resolving disputes, protecting reputation and avoiding lengthy court proceedings.
