Design

Design protection refers to the legal safeguarding of the aesthetic and ornamental appearance of a product, rather than its functional features. This protection ensures that the visual design of a product—such as its shape, patterns, colors, or surface decoration—is not copied or imitated by others without the creator's permission.

Design protection is part of intellectual property (IP) law, and it can be granted through various legal mechanisms, including design registration. Depending on the jurisdiction, the protection may be obtained through registration or unregistered rights, providing legal avenues for creators to control the use of their designs.

We will help you in securing and enforcing your rights regarding design protection. Here's how we can help you navigate the process of design protection:

• Identify eligible designs for protection. Not all designs are eligible for protection. We can help assess whether your design qualifies for protection under intellectual property law,
• Design registration. One of the most common ways to protect a design is by registering it with the relevant authorities. We can guide you through the registration process, ensuring that the design is correctly filed and that you meet all necessary requirements.
• Handle design disputes. Design protection can sometimes lead to disputes, either over ownership, infringement, or licensing terms. We can assist you to facilitate negotiations or mediate disputes between parties.

By engaging a legal counsel you can secure your design rights, minimize legal risks, and ensure that your designs are properly protected both in the marketplace and in the courtroom.
