… and what we can do for you
The attorneys-at-law and patent attorneys of HERTIN offer comprehensive advise, consultation, support and representation in all matters relating to the protection and commercialisation of your intellectual property, the sustainable establishment and development of new companies and legal defence surrounding lawsuits or threats arising from protective intellectual property rights. In this way we secure innovation and creativity in the marketplace as an essential requirement of a strong commercial position. Our services are equally important to the artistic/creative sphere as to academic and technical fields.
Our clients
Our clients stem from national and international businesses, organisations and academic institutions, and include creative or professional individuals including business people, investors, artists, authors, film and music industry professionals, developers and scientific inventors.
What they have in common is their creativity and innovation, in addition to their fierce competition on the marketplace, even when arising from such varying fields such as environmental engineering, transport, biotech, pharmaceuticals, medical technology, chemistry, insurance, electric/online commerce, film and television, entertainment, literature, event management, music, software, internet and the media.
