Expiry Management of Registered Intellectual Property, Rights Renewal, and Maintenance Fee Payments for Intellectual Property Rights

Patents covering inventions, utility models, industrial designs, and trademark certificates necessitate periodic renewal, as they lapse if not extended. In many countries, including the Russian Federation, it falls upon the owners of protection documents to ensure that accurate information regarding the rights holder is kept current in state registries. The frequency, procedures, and costs associated with maintaining these protection documents can vary depending on the country where legal protection is conferred.

Our firm offers services for diligently monitoring the validity of protection documents, making use of modern software tailored for these tasks. We provide expert guidance on extending the term of protection documents, while considering the specific legal requirements of the jurisdictions where such extensions are required.
