Hogan Lovells (Paris) LLP

Hogan Lovells (Paris) LLP houses one of the most extensive IPMT practices in the French market. Their trade marks team is well-versed in providing guidance on a broad spectrum of issues, encompassing both transactional matters like brand management and disputes that involve intricate multi-jurisdictional litigation, arbitration, and mediation before French courts and the French Intellectual Property Office. They are frequently entrusted with handling IP matters alongside corporate transactions. At the helm, the team is co-led by three accomplished experts: Marie-Aimée de Dampierre, an authority in the securitisation of trade mark rights and mediation proceedings; David Taylor, a specialist in internet-related trade mark protection; and Jane Seager, a seasoned expert in brand protection. They are routinely sought after by major clients for advice on sensitive and often cross-border trade mark cases, priding themselves on providing clients with a comprehensive one-stop-shop service. The team’s capabilities have recently been further strengthened with the addition of highly skilled associates Anna Revidi (October 2022) and Claire Bratel (May 2023).
