Haseltine Lake - European Patent and Trade Mark Attorneys - Intellectual Property Advice
 

Design Overview

Registered Design rights are becoming increasingly popular as a means of protecting distinctive product identity. Our Design team works across a very broad spectrum of industries and sectors from heavy engineering through to graphic and decorative arts.

The European Community Design, introduced in 2003, has quickly established itself as a simple and cost effective way to protect product design, and take up from within Europe and from North America and the Far East is rising steadily.

Haseltine Lake's clients for Registered Design work include:
