Practice areas
Business
International companies need to know that doing business in Ecuador might be challenging but rewarding with proper guidance. There are many key issues that differ from other legal systems that can be easily detected prior to any negotiation. We look forward to assisting new ventures starting businesses in Ecuador or assisting them to comply with all the handling and maintenance needed.
Intellectual Property
Ecuador follows the French protection of intellectual works based on the rights of the author: droit d’auteur. The system distinguishes between moral rights which belong only to the author and economical rights which are assignable. Copyrights and related rights are protected by the Ecuadorian Intellectual Property Law, the Andean Decision No. 351, the Berne Convention and the Universal Copyright Convention. The law allows for cumulative protection, thus an owner of a copyright can assert its rights as a bar to a trademark application.
