Our business areas > Legal, property rights, patents
Reviewing the legal foundations of a company e.g the patents that it holds, the patents it should register or not, assessing the legal risks of its contracts and agreements (distribution, licences, transfers of technology) are examples of the areas where small and medium-sized companies need the assistance of specialist consultants. These actions are often costly and should therefore be strictly limited to the relevant areas. Our advice will help you to reduce your needs for external counselling to the minimum and to construct your business on sound legal bases.
