Mrs Irina Vasile
Work Department
Intellectual Property
Position
Irina is heading the intellectual property and franchising practice and she is the co-head of the mergers and acquisitions and data privacy practice at Lexters.
Irina’s extensive experience in these fields has allowed her to represent a wide range of clients, from startups to corporations, in complex and high-stakes transactions. Her practice covers matters such as IT, IP, franchising, trademark and patent protection, commercial licensing of intellectual property, media, healthcare, consumer protection and regulatory issues.
In franchise litigation, Irina (alongside Lexters team) obtained some landmark court decisions in the Romania – such as annulment of franchise agreements based on fraud (the franchisor had insufficient know how to operate the business), as well as securing injunctions to prevent franchisees from fraudulently using the know-how acquired during the course of the franchise agreement.
She is a strategic advisor for companies for their most important litigations, including complex disputes related to franchising, trademark, patent, trade secret, unfair competition, shareholders disputes and other technology-related claims.
