International treaties relating to intellectual property, as well as national laws in each country, seek to establish a decisive framework for the protection of intellectual property rights by designating each country as an administrative body responsible for receiving and examining applications for registration and protection.
Our lawyers at Zaid Law Firm and Legal Consultations undertake the procedures for protecting intellectual property for its owners. We protect and register trademarks, patents, and industrial models, which are assets for the companies that own them.
We also appeal decisions issued to reject the registration of trademarks and resolve confusion regarding registered trademarks. Here we explain some of the services we provide, which are:
Patent registration:
Patent registration is granted by the competent government agency in each country, granting the applicant full and exclusive rights to ownership of the invention. Note that the law protects patents from being used by others without prior authorization. To register a patent, the submitted model must contain something new, useful, innovative, and capable of industrial application.
Copyright:
It is the protection of the author’s right to dispose of his original works in accordance with the requirements of intellectual property protection. It is similar to a patent, which must be something tangible, such as a poem, song, letter, or book, as well as the programming codes related to games and software. The law also provides the author with copyright in the use of his works.
Brands:
A trademark is a distinctive mark that identifies a business offering a particular product or service. It typically takes the form of a symbol, phrase, or logo that distinguishes each product from the others. Others may use it to market their products and services only under licensing agreements. A trademark is unique in that it protects more than one product, unlike a patent, which protects a single product. It is recommended to register a trademark that protects products and services to ensure that others do not use it.
Trade secrets:
It is a company practice that provides an economic benefit or advantage to the owner of the trade secret, so a non-disclosure agreement is signed to protect trade secrets.
