Intellectual Property

Intellectual property adds value to any company and gives it a competitive edge on the market. It is therefore important to protect it properly and actively defend it throughout its validity.

We are trademark and design attorneys registered with the Slovenian Intellectual Property Office, WIPO and EUIPO. We understand that protection comes at a high cost and thus aim to achieve it in the optimal and most cost-effective way. In 2024, we became involved as experts for the IP Scan Enforcement service, which allows Slovenian SMEs to recover part of the consultancy costs in cases where a third party infringes their rights, or they are the ones who receive claims from a third party for allegedly infringing their IP assets.

Our experienced team of experts is supported by databases of competent authorities’ decisions, advanced software solutions providers and registries, all of which help us provide comprehensive support to our clients from the moment they decide to register to the enforcement of their rights or the defence of third-party claims. Good contacts with foreign specialist lawyers also contribute to a comprehensive service when help is needed abroad.

We are equally active in the area of employment-related inventions. We assist clients in drafting internal acts, advise them on their relations with each other and represent them in disputes.

We advise and represent clients in copyright law, with a special focus on the proper regulation of contractual relations.

We are also acknowledged as experts in intellectual property litigation. We have accumulated substantial experience in patent, trademark, design and copyright litigation over the years and we further build on this experience with our knowledge of foreign case law.

We have seen in our work that there is an urgent need to raise the level of awareness of the importance of protecting key information at companies. We regularly conduct lectures for our clients on the proper processing of confidential information and we also advise them on the drafting of internal acts.

We cannot ignore the area of new technologies, as nowadays effective legal counselling in this area is indispensable from the point of view of intellectual property rights. Our added value is our in-depth knowledge of technology and our collaboration with renowned developers and consultants in this field.
