Trademarks
In today’s competitive markets, standing out from the crowd has never been more important. A trademark or service mark provides the key link between providers of goods or services and their customers. We dedicate a large specialist team to handling delicate matters arising in the area of trademark and service mark registration. Our services include pre-filing registrability advice, filing and prosecution, renewals, maintenance, advice on exploitation and enforcement. In addition, our specialist team is fully capable of undertaking highend prosecution work, including hearings and oppositions before the registrar. Our expertise and rapport with the local trademarks office make us the ideal trademark firm for trademark filings in Malaysia and Singapore. We can also file trademark and service mark registrations in any country worldwide through our network of foreign associates, as well as international applications via the Madrid Protocol.

Patents
Although the world’s patent systems were designed for the industrial age, they have since evolved and the patenting of inventions remains just as relevant today. Effective drafting, prosecution and exploitation of patents call for a sound aptitude for technology, in-depth knowledge of the applicable law and practice, and excellent communication skills. Our team of chartered and registered patent agents have the necessary technical, legal and linguistic prowess to secure and enhance the business value of patent protection for inventions in many diverse technologies. Our local knowledge, expertise and resources make us the natural choice for patent prosecution in Malaysia and Singapore.

Industrial design
Industrial design has acquired much greater significance in recent times. As consumers increasingly take the technical functions of goods for granted, design often becomes the decisive factor in a purchase. We routinely assist clients in securing industrial design registrations both at home and abroad. Such a practice demands a sound understanding of both international and local laws covering industrial designs. We can assist clients with the necessary actions in the event that their registered industrial designs are infringed by third parties.

Other services
In addition to trademark, patent and industrial services, we offer other IP-related services, including copyright advisory and enforcement work, product registration and plant variety protection. These value-added services not only assist our clients, but also allow us to provide a comprehensive, one-stop IP centre for business and commercial needs.
