Got questions about intellectual property? We’ve answered the most common inquiries to help you understand how we work, what we offer, and how to protect your IP the right way.
What types of intellectual property do you protect?
We cover patents, trademarks, copyrights, and industrial designs—offering full protection from filing to enforcement.
Do I need to register my idea to protect it?
Ideas themselves can't be protected, but once your idea takes a tangible form—like a product, brand, or invention—you can protect it through patents, trademarks, or copyrights.
How long does the IP registration process take?
It depends on the type of IP. On average, trademarks take 6–12 months, while patents can take 1–2 years, depending on complexity and jurisdiction.
Can you help with international IP protection?
Yes, we assist with global IP strategies, including filings under international treaties like the Madrid Protocol (for trademarks) and PCT (for patents).
What’s the difference between a trademark and a patent?
A trademark protects brand names, logos, and slogans. A patent protects inventions and new technologies. Both serve different purposes in safeguarding your IP.
