The internationally-oriented practice at CMS Rodríguez-Azuero sets out its stall as being a key partner to local and multinational clients looking for cross-border IP protection, due to its ability to leverage the wider CMS network. The team also stands out for its comprehensive coverage of IP law, with significant skill sets in trade marks, patents, plant breeder’s rights, copyright and corporate support work. The team is led jointly by Karl Mutter, who also fronts the life sciences and health practice; and Felipe Andrade, who additionally co-heads the dispute resolution group. Associate director Lola Kandelaft provides support.
