Our specialists will support you in words and deeds with developing and implementing an IP strategy based on your company objectives. Whether it involves a patent application, drawing up agreements or support with infringement proceedings, our style of working is to the point and completely transparent.
Trademark & design registration
Registering your trademark or design means that it cannot be simply used or copied by third parties. Careful registration is important and can sometimes be fairly complex. V.O. supports you through this process. We help you to guard your creation, deal with unauthorized copying and set up a robust licence agreement. This lets you get the maximum from your ideas.
