TMOA has been involved in the protection of intellectual property for over 130 years and has protected the trade-marks and other rights of thousands of companies, from entrepreneurial owner-managed businesses, to global multi-nationals; doing so globally in every country where registration is possible. Services provided include: searching into the availability for use and registration of trade-marks; filing and prosecution of trade mark applications; the enforcement and defence of rights obtained; and the renewal of registered rights. Most recently, TMOA has been helping its clients protect their interests through the current period of global uncertainty with two services that enable them to: watch for, and react to, trade mark infringements globally; and set up structures that efficiently insulate, and so protect, their intellectual property from trading risk. Both are becoming must-have “insurance policies” that effectively protect clients’ interests, and so mitigate business risk.
