About Me
I advise both national and international clients on all aspects of non-technical intellectual property rights, commercial and regulatory law, particularly in the retail and consumer/food and beverage sector. Having practiced in these areas in both common law and civil law jurisdictions for more than 13 years I have gathered substantial expertise and experience in those fields that I am happy to share with our clients.
One of my focus areas is trade mark law where I advise clients in all relevant fields starting from strategic advice concerning building and extending trade mark portfolios, commercialisation of brand assets, to defending of trade mark rights against infringement. I support clients with the defence of geographical indications, as well as trade name and domain disputes. Apart from intellectual property I am providing advice in commercial and regulatory matters, as well as sports law-related issues.Capabilities
