NLO is equipped in providing a whole range of IP services and these are as below,

Search:

NLO is able to assist the clientele in searching the relevant databases. It provides a result oriented search report. A search should be made for finding if there are any conflicting IP rights already in existence, to check on availability for your IP rights, an insight to the IP rights in the market. A search is considered precautionary as no IP owner would want to go for lengthy litigation/infringement proceedings. It also serves in getting information of IP rights, which infringe on your own IP rights.

Apply:

NLO is able to assist the clientele in applying for registration of their IP rights. IP rights need to be protected as their value is always considerable and for those purposes, application for registration in the relevant country should be sought. NLO will assist in this whole process and brings its extensive experience and qualifications.

Watch:

Registration alone is not the solution. As IP rights are a valuable resource, NLO will bring forth its resources to watch the relevant database for any possible infringement for your IP rights. A good watching service will exploit all available resources, which we do. We also provide a service to major corporations by keeping vigilance for world acclaimed IP rights in the relevant databases and check for any "passing off" actions. In many cases, infringes use clients unawareness of other markets and simply register the IP rights. Our watching service will report any such infringement.

IP rights need to be maintained. NLO will enter the changes in the IP rights such as IP rights owners name, address, etc. in the relevant databases. We also provide renewal services.
