I am a partner in our Intellectual Property Group with over 20 years' experience, and I head up our leading IP team in the Netherlands. On the industry side I am co-head of our international luxury, fashion and retail team, and co-head of the Dutch Retail & Consumer Group.
I am a partner in our Intellectual Property practice based in London, specialising in IP enforcement and litigation across a range of rights including patents, trade marks, designs and confidential information. I frequently act in complex litigation (often with a cross border element) before the IPEC, High Court, Court of Appeal and CJEU, as well as in proceedings before the EUIPO/UKIPO. I also advise on international customs enforcement programmes and detentions.
It takes all kinds – the Federal Court issues a decision on Moccona and Vittoria’s trade mark dispute over the use of coffee jars, dismissing the infringement claim and cross-claim for cancellation
