Designs

The protection of products and product parts by registered and unregistered designs has been of increasing importance for many years. It is an effective instrument against counterfeits. This applies to national designs as well as to designs protected within the EU, to the acquisition of design protection as well as to the enforcement of design rights, out of court and before the courts.

We advise on the application strategy for obtaining the largest possible protection, as well as the most incontestable protection as possible; nationally and internationally. We represent you before the German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA), the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) and the courts of the EU as well as before the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the German District Courts and Higher Regional Courts.
