A brand is often a business’s most valuable asset — and the one most exposed when it crosses borders. We help businesses operating from Cyprus protect and enforce their intellectual property, with a focus on trade marks and brand protection, drawing on a strong commercial-disputes background to act decisively when rights are challenged or infringed.
Trade marks & brand protection. Clearance and registration of national, EU (EUIPO) and international (Madrid System) trade marks; oppositions and cancellation proceedings; portfolio strategy; and advice on brand use and licensing.
Enforcement & disputes. Infringement, passing off and unfair-competition claims; cease-and-desist and pre-action correspondence; and litigation before the Cyprus courts, with cross-border coordination where rights span multiple jurisdictions.
Wider IP. Advisory on trade secrets, confidential information and IP exploitation, including the commercial agreements through which IP is licensed and assigned. For copyright, performance rights and collective rights management in the cultural and music sector, see our Arts, Culture & Music practice.
We are actively developing our intellectual property practice, including specialist credentials, and bring to it the litigation rigour the field increasingly demands. To discuss a matter, contact info@topouzislegal.com or +357 22 26 24 54.
