Intellectual Property & IT

Intellectual property
Companies increasingly recognise the importance of trade name and trademark rights. Infringement of such rights can have serious consequences, both financially and in terms of reputation and distinctive character. marxman's core business includes securing and protecting these rights, and ensuring proper registration.

As an author of a book or article you, just like a painter or graphic designer, have copyrights; your books or articles - or paintings or drawings - may not be copied at will, whether in full or in part. If this does happen, it is essential that you take steps as quickly as possible. marxman can also help you protect your invention and assist you if your patent is infringed. In addition, we provide advice on the commercial exploitation of intellectual property rights, both by licensing or assignment. Furthermore, marxman keeps entrepreneurs informed of current developments.

IT
Doing business in the new economy is subject to its own, often special rules. Marxman's specialised attorneys deal with the specific legal aspects and are fully up-to-date with the dos and don'ts of virtual business.

Marxman advises manufacturers, providers and purchasers of products and services of a digital nature and assists in contracting procedures. Where necessary, Marxman will assist you in civil proceedings or before the Dutch Foundation for the Settlement of Automation Disputes (Stichting Geschillenoplossing Automatisering).
