PATENTS, TRADEMARKS & INDUSTRIAL DESIGNS

Safeguard your intellectual property (IP). Patents, trademarks, and industrial designs are essential for the protection of your IP assets. They can ensure the continued success of your business.

At FORT, our team of experienced trademark and design lawyers and licensing lawyers provide comprehensive legal services in these areas. Our legal advice guides clients through the complexities of IP protection and helps maintain a competitive edge.

Understanding the Differences: Patents, Trademarks, and Industrial Designs

While patents, trademarks, and industrial designs are all forms of IP protection, they serve distinct purposes.

Patents protect new inventions, offering exclusive rights to the inventor for a limited time.

Trademarks protect distinctive signs, logos, or symbols that can be used to identify a brand, product, or service. The primary purpose of a trademark is the trust of the source.

Industrial designs secure the rights to unique appearance and design elements.
