INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Bayraktar-Işık helps our clients build and profile business-aligned intellectual property assets, and leverage these assets effectively in strategic business relationships and transactions.

Our firm advise and assist clients in drafting and negotiating intellectual property licensing agreements. The firm also provides tailor-made intellectual property strategies to its clients. Such assistance covers the evaluation on positioning of the industrial rights in the Turkish market, such as advising on possible legal actions that can be taken regarding third parties’ infringements against well-known marks. In assisting our Clients in this respect, we perform our evaluation considering not only the possible legal consequences but also their business priorities. 

Further, the firm provides representation of international corporations and associations in their intellectual property related disputes before Turkish Courts. Further, our firm provides trademark and patent litigation in order to cease infringements of third parties and to challenge administrative obstacles before the trademark and patent registration. 

On the other hand, we provide services to our Clients within the context of the administrative processes followed before the Turkish Patent Institute, i.e. applications for registration and renewal of trademark, patent and other industrial rights, oppositions regarding third parties’ applications etc. 

We also advise our Clients to create public awareness on intellectual property right protection and to provide cooperation with the government authorities and the rightholders’ associations.
