The team at ECIJA draws on the bench strength of its March 2023 alliance with Taylor Wessing LLP and offices throughout Europe and Latin America (and in the metaverse) to safeguard and manage the trade marks, copyrights and patents of national and multinational corporates, such as Church & Dwight, across a diverse range of sectors, including consumer goods, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, hospitality and textiles. The practice’s full service offering extends to industrial designs, utility models, advertising, merchandising and sponsorship and assignments. Monserrat Soto Roig, who was elevated to the partnership in September 2024, leads the team, bringing expertise to such matters as IP risk assessment, image rights, software licences and work-for-hire agreements.
