Presentation
Cabinet LEGABRAND is a Trademark Attorney Firm founded in 2008 by Patricia Bismuth who specialises in trademark, design and copyright law.
The firm acts on behalf of clients in trademark and design management, in France and internationally and thus files trademarks and designs in every country where industrial property protection is possible.
Cabinet Legabrand is registered with and approved by INPI (French national institute of industrial property), EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office), and WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organisation), enabling the firm to file trademarks in almost one hundred countries.
To file a trademark in a non-member country of these Offices, Legabrand works with other international trademark lawyers who are then appointed to file the mark.
Thus, in cooperation with other law firms, Legabrand regularly files client trademarks in the United Arab Emirates, Lebanon, Canada, Hong Kong and Taiwan, etc.
The firm therefore has in-depth knowledge of French, European and international trademark, copyright and design procedures.
