We live in a global community with International production, marketing, distribution and sales of products. Should you obtain patent protection only in the US or should you look at obtaining protection in other nations.
Intellectual Property laws are national laws that vary from country to country. However, for each of patent, trademark, and copyright law, there are treaties to which the U.S. is a party, that provide for a substantial degree of harmonization and reciprocity. Portland Intellectual Property, LLC has relationships with legal associates in a number of foreign countries, and routinely works with associates in Europe, including specifically Germany and the U.K., and in Canada, China, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Australia, Chile and Brazil, to obtain intellectual property rights for our clients in foreign countries. If you have a need, we have relationships with associates in other countries as well, or we can initiate new ones.
