IP / IT – Communication

All forms of invention are of high economic value and should be protected to ensure profitability, for both inventors and users. An invention is the central focus of any offensive or defensive communication campaign.

Our firm applies its insight and experience in the intellectual property field to assist its clients in various stages of invention and innovation, by proposing the most appropriate intellectual property protection measures based on:

  • Preliminary investigations (searching for pre-existing inventions)
  • Legal provisions (brands, designs, models, patents, copyright)
  • Offline and online agreements and contracts (confidential agreements, licensing agreements, transfer of contract rights, distribution contracts, etc.).

Naturally, we propose solutions adapted to each contract in order to maximise the exploitation of inventions in France and/or internationally, particularly in the IT and communication sectors whereby intellectual input is very high and requires a very personalised approach.

In addition to consulting services, we also act in the legal field for representation and defence purposes, in various disputes concerning intangible assets (counterfeits, infringement, unfair competition practices, etc.).

Our clients include companies in the high-tech industry, communication consulting services, inventors and business entrepreneurs seeking to upgrade and step up protection of their knowhow or who wish to exploit acquired rights in compliance with the law.

Coblence & Associés’ experience and industry savvy is demonstrated by its presence in specialist legal magazines and directories (Décideurs Juridiques, Legal 500…).

We acted in several litigation cases involving case laws with respect to developing new technology.
