Intellectual Property

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY (TRADEMARK, PATENT, COPYRIGHT)

Intellectual property law is that area of law, which concern legal rights associated with creative effort or commercial reputation and goodwill. Intellectual property is the things that are created by the human thought; as a result of intellectual activities. The Lawyers & Jurists has an extraordinary repute in connection with a wide range of intellectual property services. Our services comprise of registration of IP rights and also dealing with disputes arising out of such rights.

In today’s global marketplace, identifying, developing and protecting intellectual property (IP) rights is crucial in establishing and growing a successful business. We provide all kind of IP related legal solutions to our clients with trademark, copyright, patent and trade secret legal issues. From the inception of an idea to the global marketing of products, our lawyers seek to partner with clients to anticipate and minimize future conflicts while maximizing present opportunities. We employ a team approach to each transaction, so the same lawyers that performed a trademark search are also the ones who defend its proprietary rights.

Our goal is to remain on the cutting edge of this rapidly changing field to help preserve our clients’ competitive edge. However, while intellectual property is divided in to two branches, namely industrial property and Copy right, our chamber has extended its services to those companies which are in need of protecting its intellectual property.

Since the business and activities of such kind is gradually increasing in Bangladesh, necessity of practicing intellectual property law has been felt over the years. Therefore, our chamber has invested a considerable time to build up a team who are solely specialized in the field of Intellectual Property. Companies with a huge reputation always face a threat that some other person or persons is using the same name with a cunning change which is not identical at the first instance. Therefore, in the name of original reputed company, the vested quarter is making their revenue giving a serious loss to the original one. Thus necessity of intellectual property law practice is considered an integral part by a large sector of company. Our experience has shown that in most of the cases the courts are applying the principle with great care so that the injured party suffers no more loss, and consequently be compensated by the infringers. Our chamber has a series of record to keep the right as to intellectual property intact. Most of the cases are regarding Trade mark, Design or patent.
