The Alina Szilaghi law office helps companies identify, protect and exploit their intellectual assets, from the company name and trademark to software, content and know-how. Where needed we work with external specialists, for example on technical filings or patents.
What we cover
- Trademarks: clearance, applications to OSIM (Law no. 84/1998) and EUIPO, oppositions and disputes;
- Copyright: software, content, marketing materials and works created in an employment or contractor relationship (Law no. 8/1996);
- Industrial designs (Law no. 129/1992) and, where relevant, cooperation on patents (Law no. 64/1991);
- Contracts: licence, assignment and software development agreements, confidentiality and IP clauses in employment and contractor agreements;
- Enforcement: notices, negotiations, infringement actions and interim measures under Government Emergency Ordinance no. 100/2005, including online and in e-commerce.
How we work
- We take stock of the relevant assets and how they were created or acquired (the chain of title matters).
- We propose a protection plan: filings, contracts and internal policies.
- We represent the company in negotiations and before the courts or competent authorities.
Software and e-commerce projects often connect with IT, telecoms and media and data protection compliance. For commercial contracts see corporate and commercial law, and for disputes litigation and arbitration. Fees are agreed before work starts (see Fees); book a consultation.
