Team Services

A league of its own, V&A Law’s Intellectual Property Department easily handles the prosecution of countless trademarks & patents belonging to some of the world’s leading companies. Apart from its lauded accuracy & efficiency in IP prosecution, V&A Law takes pride in its sterling reputation in IP litigation. Its victories in big-ticket IP litigation have paved the way for the entry of cheaper medicines into the Philippines & have resulted in the promulgation of some of the country’s landmark case laws in intellectual property.

Owing to the leadership of seasoned lawyers, who are adept in conventional & emerging aspects of IP, together with the invaluable contribution of its budding lawyers with backgrounds in medicine, molecular biology, physics, politics, media & fashion, V&A Law offers multifaceted advice on IP commercialization, IP rights enforcement, border control measures, food, drug & cosmetics regulatory compliance, freedom-to-operate searches, domain name registration & over-the-top regulation.

On the Firm’s 40th year, the Firm’s IP Department, which is consistently recognized in numerous legal rankings, continues to espouse a commitment to render legal services outside the bounds of time-tested playbooks for its clients in a seemingly borderless practice area.
