About

Jacobacci Avvocati is an Italian IP boutique with a team of nearly 50 professionals fully dedicated to intellectual property, from trademarks to patents, from copyrights to designs.  The team works across four offices located in Italy (Turin, Milan and Rome) and France (Paris). Through long-standing relationships with international partners and clients, developed organically over the years, we have a relevant global footprint.

Over the years, our professionals have represented clients in matters of considerable legal complexity across the entire field of IP. They have obtained landmark decisions and contributed to the establishment of legal precedents before both Italian and European courts in numerous areas of intellectual property law and practice.

Focus on Patent

We provide highly specialized assistance in connection with the patent area and handle a large volume of both Italian and cross-border IP litigation matters for its clients. We are best known for our specialization in working as the Italian side of multinational patent litigation cases, primarily in the areas of Pharma, Medical Devices and High Tech. We are also active in the new UPC scenario, where we can assist both locally and before the Paris and Milan central divisions of the Court.

Focus on Trademark and Design

In the Trademark and Design practice areas, we are regularly engaged by leading brand owners in some of the most challenging and important IP issues of the moment, and regularly represent clients before Italian Courts, including the Supreme Court, and the EU Courts. We act for multinational companies as Italian litigation counsel, particularly in high-value disputes in trademark matters. We advise on all aspects of design protection, management and enforcement. Our combined design management and litigation practice offers significant strength and depth to clients seeking a well-rounded service.

We have broad experience across all areas of copyright law, including evaluating the scope of protection for various types of works, conducting due diligence, and managing licensing and enforcement strategies. Our assistance spans from litigation and portfolio monitoring to securing copyright registrations. We are also skilled in drafting and negotiating commercial licenses, joint development agreements, and co-ownership arrangements.
