Intellectual property lawyers

Business success is driven by ideas and innovation. Our intellectual property lawyers help both SMEs and international corporations from every sector to optimise their intellectual property rights and enforce them effectively. 

Day in, day out, more than 70 specialised CMS lawyers work on transforming creative potential into measurable enterprise value through property rights and licences. Their expertise ranges from patent and utility patent law to design law and trademark law. They also advise on copyright law, competition law (Unfair Competition Act – UWG) and border seizure. 

Our intellectual property lawyers additionally focus on ensuring that advertising campaigns are legally watertight and press materials are defensible. They also provide representation both in and out of court in all matters relating to intellectual property, including in other European countries via the international CMS organisation.
