Beccar Varela offers a one-stop shop for all IP issues and prides itself on providing support beyond the traditional patent and trade mark prosecution disciplines. Strategic advice related to the protection, ownership, and enforcement of all kinds of IP rights is a key focus area for the practice group, which also handles contract negotiation and drafting, as as well as coordinating patent and trade mark prosecution. The team is co-led by Emilio Beccar Varela, who complements his IP practice with deep expertise in media, entertainment, telecoms and technology; and well-reviewed IP all-rounder Florencia Rosati, who is a stand-out trade mark, patents and copyright law litigator.
