設計權利

About

您獨特的產品設計值得被保護

無論您所經營的是消費性產品、醫療器材、製藥、重型設備、服裝、體育用品或圖像用戶界面,當一家公司在設計開發上投入巨資時,設計的保護是至關重要的。您的設計使您從競爭中脫穎而出,使您的產品與眾不同,並有助於維持競爭優勢。

在與客戶共事保護其設計時,我們會花時間了解客戶的產品,以及這些產品在客戶整體業務規劃和競爭版圖上的重要性。對背景有更廣泛的理解,使我們得以撰寫並取得更強且有效的設計權,建構市場壁壘,保護您的產品免於被直接「山寨」,也同時免於讓有心模仿者仿造出的產品酷似原設計。

 我們的經驗橫跨您設計權和註冊的整個生命週期

這不僅僅是取得設計專利或註冊,亦攸關接下來要做什麼。從新產品開發到申請專利、訴訟、上訴、甚至到專利組合的出售,飛翰都能提供協助。我們與各種規模的創新客戶合作,包括財富100強和全球1000大企業,及各行各業的公共和私營組織。

我們在美國專利商標局及其專利審判暨上訴委員會代表客戶處理美國設計專利案件,包括都是高度專業的核准後複審和牴觸審查。在歐洲,飛翰代表申請人直接向歐盟智財局、英國智財局、和德國專利商標局做外觀設計註冊。我們也利用世界智財組織下的海牙公約系統,透過簡化的申請流程向多國申請取得保護。

在美國、歐盟、和英國,我們經常在侵權、有效性、和自由運營的領域提供客戶建議,也就設計權利提供綜合評估,成為智權交易的一部分。我們曾在美國地院、美國國際貿易委員會、和美國最高法院針對設計專利提起訴訟。無論您設計保護的需求在那裡,我們的經驗都能一路相伴。

 您的觸角遍及全球之際,設計權利的保護也應擴及全世界

我們在美國、亞洲、和歐洲的據點,加上與全球超過200家事務所的專業聯繫,得以協助客戶在國內與國際市場取得產品設計的保護。我們有直接的經驗替遍及全球之客戶申請美國設計專利以及註冊歐盟和英國的設計權。我們也善用國際申請系統,例如海牙公約,得以協調超過二十個國家的申請程序。此外,當您的權利受到威脅時,我們有資源迅速採取行動,保障您的權益。

 獲得立即的保護與救濟

當訴訟成為保障客戶權益或應對競爭對手挑戰的必要手段時,我們的訴訟律師即刻就定位,以便隨時採取行動。承接設計專利訴訟案常面臨獨特的挑戰,例如必須與專家密切合作,調查證據,方能彙編整理出正確的證據。眾多美國法院和行政法庭 (包括專利審判暨上訴委員會) 所受理,牽涉設計專利之各法律層面的訴訟案,我們皆獲得勝訴。我們也處理挑戰設計有效性的案件,向歐盟智財局與英國智財局之上訴委員會提起的上訴案,以及向英國和德國法院提起之上訴案件。

設計權利可能只是您智財難題的一環

飛翰在包括發明專利、商標、和著作權之智權法律各領域的經驗,加上廣告及營業秘密智權面向的經驗,使我們能夠擬定互補策略,讓  貴公司產品在各方面都受到最好的保護。設計專利在申請和訴訟中,與發明專利、商標、或商業外觀常常是併存的。我們的律師汲取數十年來智財權各領域的經驗,全面保護客戶的利益。
