About

Provided by Roschier

Intellectual Property is a dedicated focus area for Roschier, attracting clients for such stand-alone work.

The IP department advises on all kinds of IP rights, including copyright, trademarks, designs, patents, unfair marketing practices and trade secrets. It is equally strong within IP disputes and commercial IP/TMT, with particular expertise in “bet the company” IP litigation for companies.

Roschier's firm strategy focuses on cross-selling all of the firm's departments to all clients. Roschier's IP clients therefore benefit from access to the firm's market leading full-service offering. The clients also benefit from the IP department being part of a joint department with TMT and Life Sciences. The broadness and depth of the service has proven to be particularly relevant for companies transforming their businesses in line with global digitalization trends.

Roschier practitioners are known as inventive "out of the box" thinkers and problem solvers – regularly engaged to provide advice on and develop strategic IP management processes for Nordic businesses' global operations, renewable materials, vehicle safety companies and digitalization companies.
