Our Services in Trademark, Patent and Copyright Law in Canada, the US, and Internationally
While the services offered by the professionals at Andrews Robichaud are varied, they all embrace the same ultimate objective: providing real value and practical results to our clients. In general terms, these services can be categorized as either "sword" or "shield" in nature, and often encompass both. We are passionate about helping our clients to protect and build their knowledge based businesses both in Canada and around the world. The constant theme present in all of our service offerings is one of creating and/or protecting value and wealth. The ability to create, protect and leverage knowledge based assets is one of the great builders of modern day businesses, and we are proud to be able to participate with our clients and provide them with the real results they seek in the growth and evolution of their knowledge based assets and businesses.
Protection and Registration
Our intellectual property professionals practice regularly in the fields of patents, trade-marks, copyright, industrial designs, domain names, internet law, licensing, franchising, syndication, confidential information, trade secrets and related areas. We routinely provide advice and counsel on identifying, protecting and registering valuable intellectual property rights, and work closely with our clients in preparing and filing applications in the pertinent intellectual property offices, and prosecuting them through to successful registration, both in Canada and internationally through a significant network of qualified associates.
Opposition and Litigation
Business and competitive realities also require a keen understanding of the exclusive nature of intellectual property rights, and just where the boundaries of these rights are. In that regard, Andrews Robichaud's professionals also provide opinions on infringement, and where required, we engage in oppositions, litigation and expungement proceedings on behalf of clients, either asserting their rights, or defending them against third party plaintiffs. We have experienced litigators who have had extensive involvement, carriage and success in many complex intellectual property opposition and litigation cases. In addition, our professionals are well versed and skilled in mediation, arbitration and alternative dispute resolution principles and proceedings. Ultimately, our goal is to protect our clients' valuable rights and interests whether it requires intensive litigation or timely resolution and settlement. Our preference is to help our clients grow their businesses and wherever possible to avoid spending valuable time, money and resources in protracted and expensive legal and administrative proceedings.
Commercialization
Intellectual property rights and knowledge-based assets are and can be very valuable. One of the main focus areas of Andrews Robichaud is to work closely with clients and to help them commercialize and exploit these assets, whether it is through a sale, transfer, licensing arrangement, franchise, syndication or any other alliance or arrangement that both protects and maximizes these rights and their value for our clients. Our firm emphasis is on helping our clients to be successful.
