Intellectual Property Law
Intellectual property is often among a company’s most valuable assets. Jonsson & Hall advises entrepreneurs, companies and rightsholders on the creation, protection and exploitation of intellectual property rights in Iceland and abroad.
Specialised service and experience
Our advice may cover, among other things, the registration of trademarks, patents and designs, contracts on the exploitation of intellectual property, licence agreements, copyright and the interplay between intellectual property law and commercial contracts.
Jonsson & Hall represents clients where intellectual property rights have been infringed, whether through unauthorised use of trademarks, imitation of designs or disputes over ownership of intellectual property developed by employees or contractors.
We place emphasis on intellectual property protection being designed in step with the company’s business strategy, so that it supports brand-building, innovation and cross-border market expansion.
Our aim is for our advice to be practical — to create a clear framework for the ownership, exploitation and defence of intellectual property, and for clients to have realistic avenues to resolution when disputes arise.
Matters may include
- Registration of trademarks and designs
- Copyright and publishing agreements
- Licence agreements and collaboration
- Infringement of intellectual property rights
- Intellectual property in business
