Protecting and preserving our clients' IP rights.
Opposition proceedings for both Trade Marks and Patents are complex legal matters that require the attention of sharp, knowledgeable attorneys. When a client is faced with issues concerning registration of its own IP or of the registration of another party, we guide the client through the process of evaluating available options in an effort to resolve the matter in a way that is most beneficial to the client.
Our attorneys in FRKelly have the know-how and skills to meet these challenges. The team is also among the most experienced in EUIPO and EPO oppositions and appeals, and our success rates are significantly above the European average in oppositions.
