Patent & utility model protection
Patent protection and utility model protection are of crucial importance for the exclusive exploitation of your technical innovations. We will guide you through the entire process of applying for intellectual property rights – from assessing the protectability of your invention for identifying the protectable features of your invention to reliably managing all the steps required to obtain your intellectual property rights. Pavant’s patent attorneys represent you in application and grant proceedings before the German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA), the European Patent Office (EPO) and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). We have a network of international partners to assist us in extending patent protection abroad as required and coordinating the relevant proceedings.
Validity | Opposition and nullity proceedings
As patent attorneys, we are experienced in all matters relating to the validity of intellectual property rights – in particular for patents, trademarks and designs. For example, we prepare statements or expert opinions. If one of your property rights is challenged, we will take over representation before the relevant authority. Regarding patents, our expertise includes opposition and nullity proceedings before the German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA), the European Patent Office (EPO), the Federal Patent Court (BPatG) and the Unified Patent Court (EPG).
Opposition or cancellation proceedings in connection with trademarks and designs also fall within the scope of our services. We represent you in these proceedings before the German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA), the Federal Patent Court (BPatG) and the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO).
Enforcement & infringement proceedings
It may be necessary to enforce your intellectual property rights in court if a dispute cannot be settled amicably.
We are aware that legal enforcement requires careful risk assessment and an accurate strategy. Whether attack or defense – we are passionate about your interests and know what to do. We support you both in out-of-court negotiations and in court. We conduct proceedings before civil courts and particularly complex proceedings together with our trusted external lawyers.
Trademark protection & trademark monitoring
The Pavant patent attorneys in Hamburg provide you with comprehensive advice on trademark law – even beyond the mere application. To reduce collision risks, we research older trademark rights in advance and provide you with an assessment of protectability. We also advise you in all cases of conflict. We can also obtain trademark rights for you abroad and develop the appropriate strategy for national trademark applications, European Union trademark applications and/or international registrations.
We monitor the registration of identical and similar trademarks for you and, if necessary, take action against infringing trademarks.
Design protection
Design law protects the appearance of a product. We handle the drafting and filing of design applications with the relevant offices in Germany and abroad – in particular with the German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA), the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) or the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
Extrajudicial dispute settlement
We rely on efficient out-of-court solutions to resolve intellectual property disputes. We use our negotiating skills and mediation expertise to obtain legally secure agreements for you. This saves you time and resources and protects you from longsome legal disputes.
