Trademark and Patent (INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY and Information COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY)

Your concepts and ideas, innovations, brand names and brand elements are all part of your firm’s assets and must be protected. From traditional firms who need advisory for patents, copyrights and trademarks, to more contemporary firms and entertainment outfits who require our services for their music rights, film rights and even contracts, the expertise of our IP portfolio and general advisory practice team is unrivalled by any other full-service commercial law firm in Nigeria.

We provide advisory as regards brand names and their usage, creative works and inventions, product development, licensing and exploitation of intellectual property rights and acquisition and transfer of technology as well as registration, recordals, assignment and licensing arrangements. We handle disputes covering the full spectrum of IP rights and co-ordinate litigation and settlement strategies for clients in the case of IP infringement. We keep abreast with regulators and stakeholders such as the Copyright Society of Nigeria (COSON) so we can keep our clients from running afoul of regulatory laws.

Our Oki Achika Esq. is accredited with the Federal Ministry of Trade and Investment as trademark and patent agent.
