Lexincorp stands out for its ‘deep understanding of both regional and global IP frameworks’, with strong capabilities in the management of cross-border IP portfolios, frequently working alongside the firm’s offices in multiple jurisdictions in Central America. As well as trade mark registrations and renewals, the team also handles opposition and cancellation actions, and the transfer of brand portfolios. The firm also benefits from departments dedicated to new technologies and fashion law. Philip André, a key adviser on franchising and on the protection and monitoring of trade marks, patents and sanitary registrations, leads the team with associate Ana Laura Cubero, who assists both national and international clients with portfolio management and is noted for her niche expertise in fashion law.
