Intellectual property lawyers in Repentigny

These lawyers can help with trademarks, copyright, confidentiality and trade secrets, licences and assignments, and disputes over copying. When you compare profiles, look at whether a lawyer mainly advises on brands and contracts or also handles litigation, and whether they work with patent or trademark agents if your file needs one.

Where IP matters are handled

Intellectual property is mostly federal, so there is no local registry office to visit. Trademark, patent, design and copyright filings go to the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, mostly online. If a dispute goes to court, the Federal Court hears many IP cases and can sit in different cities or by video; some cases, especially those tied to a contract, can also go to the Superior Court in your judicial district.

In person or online

A lot of IP work is reviewing documents, brands and contracts, so many lawyers meet by video or phone as well as in person. You are not limited to offices in Repentigny. A nearby lawyer can still be handy if you want to show physical products, prototypes or signage in person.

Preparing for your first meeting

• Examples of the brand, work or product in question.
• Any contract with the people who created it or who use it.
• Any letter, notice or deadline you received.
• Your goal: register, license, sell, stop a copier or respond to a claim.
