FTPA’s IP practice boasts comprehensive expertise, underpinned by a strong focus on trade marks. They adeptly serve clients in both non-contentious matters, handling tasks like license agreements and rights assignments, and contentious matters, leveraging their formidable litigation capabilities before specialised French and European courts. The practice is led by Antoine Gautier-Sauvagnac, proficient in both English and French, and the team provides expert counsel to high-profile clients, including international players across diverse industries, such as fashion, transportation, luxury products, and heavy industries. Hélène Huet is a key figure, known for her strategic litigation prowess and negotiation skills. Notably, the team recently expanded with the addition of Arnaud Michel, an international IP specialist who joined as a partner in March 2023, a clear indication of the practice’s commitment to broadening its international footprint.
