Trademarks

We provide a wide range of services including trademark searches, prosecution of trademark applications, infringement suits, and injunctions against imitation goods.

It is often extremely difficult for foreign applicants to make judgments regarding the similarity of trademarks and registrability due to the complexity of the Japanese language. We provide comprehensive analysis to overcome such difficulties.

Designs

Our patent attorneys who specialize in design registrations utilize Japan's design protection system to provide clients with the most appropriate design protection, for example, protection in the form of a design for a part of an article, a set of articles, or related designs.
