Intellectual property attorneys
Industrial property rights are a key element contributing to the promotion of your innovations. Patents, trademarks or designs constitute intangible property with patrimonial value which must imperatively be assessed in order to allow a comprehensive and realistic valuation of the wealth of businesses, in particular, when those are looking for investors, partners or purchasers.
