Work highlights

  • Obtained the official recognition, for the first time in France, of the well-known status of “NESCAFE” trade mark owned by Nestlé, now enabling this trade mark to enjoy a wider scope of protection against not purely similar products/services.
  • Advised and represented PETRUS in an infringement action against two companies which were marketing wines under a PETRUS LAMBERTINI trade mark.
  • Took over the worldwide management of Barrière Groupe’s trade mark portfolio and is now in charge of strategically advising them on their worldwide IP protection strategy.

The firm, founded in 2012, soon stood out with its alternative business law offering, based on cross-functionality, complementary areas of expertise, intellectual agility and the ability to provide operational solutions for its clients.

From the time of our creation, we have supported, advised, and represented entrepreneurs, business leaders, companies and groups in France and abroad, in structuring their projects, defending their interests, evaluating and protecting their assets, and in their commercial relationships.

While our customers come from all areas of today’s economy, we have developed particularly in-depth expertise in a number of leading dynamic sectors, including sports, real estate and construction, luxury goods and retail, and the digital and media sectors.

We are able to provide you with bespoke advice adapted to all your legal matters, and to your business sector, both in France and internationally.
