Intellectual Property
Standard thinking of intellectual property is about patents, trademarks and copyright.
CLO Legal Solutions defines intellectual property as any mind creation which makes a product, a service or a business process successful. Added value by lawyers is to provide legal solutions for attaching this mind creation to the owning business only, and prevent its use by anyone else without the will of the owner. That is the philosophy, which should be implemented to each particular case.
Our IP team draws on the international resources of the practice to offer the fullest range of opportunities for protecting and enhancing the value of our client’s intellectual property in Albania. We approach each project in an innovative and commercially creative light before making realistic proposals for protecting IP assets and, where appropriate, generating the maximum returns. We have advised media industry, IT companies, food processing companies and industrial producers.
