IP
In an era of continuous innovation and creativity, intellectual property rights play a crucial role in protecting original ideas and creative expression. This area of law encompasses a range of legal mechanisms that allow individuals and companies to maintain control over their intellectual creations. This includes copyright, patent law, trademark law, industrial design rights and the right to trade secrets.
Intellectual property rights not only promote innovation and creativity, but also contribute to economic growth and competitiveness. By being able to protect original creations, individuals and businesses are encouraged to invest in new ideas, leading to technological advancements and cultural diversity.
Appropriate protection is therefore essential.

Privacy & data protection
Privacy may well be a fundamental right, but it is often the first right that is pushed aside in times of crisis. Privacy is also sometimes violated in more everyday circumstances, for example as a result of the unlawful use of your image/photo, or other violations of your privacy. Our expert team is ready to advise and assist you in such privacy-sensitive matters.
In terms of data protection, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) remains the leading regulation that almost every company must comply with. When implementing new business processes or applications, every business must take into account the strict legislation regarding the processing of personal data, in order to avoid high fines. Our specialised experts will be happy to assist you in this.
