Protecting Your Valuable Assets

Protecting and defending your ideas, innovations, or business processes in the form of property rights, patents, and trade secrets is critical to your success as an artist, employer, entrepreneur, or executive. We offer you a full range of intellectual property services, including:

Intellectual Property Claims

When the client is addressing or initiating a claim, we start by developing a sound strategy that takes into account the goals and objectives of the business. We consider a range of options such as court, mediation and arbitration, and we work together with the client to determine the best plans for the proceedings,
Intellectual property attorneys represent clients from large businesses to small businesses and individual investors in cases that involve patents, trademarks, trade secrets, false advertising licenses, etc.

Patents

At MMA Advocates we represent our clients in the acquisition, application and licensing of patents in the UAE. The right granted by the patent is a right that excludes others from working, using, offering for sale, selling or importing the invention into the UAE. When a patent is granted, the patent holder has the legal authority to exclude others from working, using, offering for sale, or selling or importing the invention into a particular country without the holder's consent, for a limited period of time. Our attorneys are ready to prepare and file lawsuits, prosecute internal and external facilities, design patent applications, as well as provide assistance to clients in the formalization of their patent rights by licensing and applying patents.

Licensing

License agreements specify the rights and responsibilities of the Licensor and the Licensee, the terms and remedies, and whether the license is for exclusive or non-exclusive use.

While the transfer of intellectual property rights brings many opportunities, it can also bring risks of infringement. Whether to sell or obtain a license, we work together with our clients on addressing several strategic considerations that involve negotiations, drafting, and implementing an agreement that enhances and protects asset value.

Trademarks, Service Marks and Uniforms

Our attorneys at MMA Advocates represent clients in all kinds of disputes involving trademarks, service marks and uniforms, including trademark infringement, trademark disguise, ad counterfeiting, unfair competition, parallel markets, counter-business activities, and publicity and advertising right suits.

Our attorneys at MMA Advocates assist clients in opposing counterfeit trademarks and cancellation transactions before the trademark court and appeals committee. We will serve you in your intellectual property cases as quickly as possible. We have all the resources required for intellectual property claims and our attorneys are proud to provide our services to clients dealing with copyright disputes, patent infringements, licensing agreement disputes, trademark infringements and several other intellectual property cases.
