Intellectual Property Legal Services
Based in Switzerland, working with clients in Europe, North America, and globally. Experience + Enthusiasm + Proximity = clear and affordable path to positive outcomes.
Collaboration
Deep listening to you, our client, is the fundamental platform for everything we do. Broad experience in different cultures and legal frameworks enables us to quickly grasp your particular context and design our work so that it can be done right the first time, saving you time and money.
Fees
Once we understand your needs, we design a customised plan with transparent pricing. We haven’t met a client yet who prefers to be billed by the hour, so we don’t use that method. If there is some part of the work that is unpredictable, we collaborate on your budget and can offer flexible payment.
Capabilities
Sharon Gobat has provided intellectual property legal services since 2001. Background in biological sciences, experience in pharmaceutical branding, and enormous curiosity across the arts and sciences, all contribute to a joyful professional life as a lawyer.
What we Do
Your project receives our full attention, regardless of size or complexity.
Trademarks
Our U.S. licensed trademark attorney will help you with the selection of trademarks, the filing of trademark applications, and with defense or enforcement of your U.S. trademarks.
Patents
Our clients who are based outside the United States often find that strategic filing of patent applications in the U.S. creates competitive advantage.
Strategy
When intangible assets protection choices are thoughtfully aligned with business objectives, branding, and your organization’s essential values, a powerful synergy results.
Get Started
Navigate I.P. opportunities and challenges with expert help
When you are trying to get the most value from your assets, it helps to have an ally who can quickly understand your context. When I learned navigation on both coasts of North America, a guide for coming safely into port was “red right returning.” As you can see from the video, the rule won’t work on a lake in Switzerland. Because my clients have given me the opportunity to solve many problems in many different contexts, over more than twenty years, I’m ready to be your ally.
Our Clients
We love diversity
Every assignment brings its own particular set of questions and opportunities, to ignite our passion for problem-solving.
Our clients are creative entrepreneurs, non-profit organizations, individual inventors, and old and new technology-driven companies of all shapes and sizes. Fellow lawyers and trademark attorneys also rely on us for representation before the USPTO, information and counsel on trademark strategy, writing of briefs and observations for opposition and cancellation proceedings in the EUIPO and TTAB, and support for U.S. trademark litigation.
