A trio of lawyers coordinate the department: Kiyoshi Tsuru is a reference point in the market for IP and technology protection and regularly represents clients in complex cases before courts, tribunals and panels; Rodolfo Rangel is a litigator with a specialism in emerging technologies and new business models; and Irely Aquique, also an IP litigation expert, is the senior contact for the firm’s offering in patent, copyright and trade mark filing.
