Work highlights
Assisted in the opening of the first store of Marco’s Pizza in Mexico, securing the registration of the corresponding trade mark, despite serious difficulties.
Overturned a decision related to copyright infringement handled by another firm, which thereafter led to a final decision that established non-infringement by our client Wiegand and the possibility of our client to recover almost $2m and also be in a position to claim damages for over $1m.
Assisted a company devoted to the tech industry, defending its IP assets, and participated in litigation related to trade mark infringement, annulment and cancellation actions, which will allow the client to maintain its trade marks in Mexico.
