Patents
Under the French Intellectual Property Code, any invention may be protected, regardless of the technological sector, provided that it is novel, involves an inventive activity and is susceptible of industrial application.

Patent law is therefore of major importance for companies, protecting their innovations against undue misuse by competitors and attacks against the monopoly conferred by the title, which constitute infringement.

CBD intervenes at every stage of patent infringement dispute, usually in collaboration with Trademark attorney specialized in the technical sector in question, from organizing infringement-seizure operations up to obtaining the adequate judicial sanction.
