Cosmetics & Pharmaceuticals
In the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, a product’s value depends on its name, appearance, and formulations. Bouchara & Avocats puts its intellectual property expertise to work for laboratories, brands, and distributors in the sector.
We protect our clients’ brands, packaging, and designs, and defend them against counterfeiting, taking into account the specific requirements of healthcare products.
Protecting Brands and Product Identity
Bouchara & Avocats ensures the protection of product names (through trademark registration), product designs, and packaging (through design patents and copyright), taking into account the specific requirements for cosmetics and health products.
We build and manage the brand portfolio, verify the availability of product names prior to their launch, and secure the corresponding domain names, both in France and abroad.
Defending Rights Against Counterfeiting
Depending on the circumstances, we issue formal notices, secure the removal of online advertisements and counterfeit websites, carry out seizures of counterfeit goods, and file lawsuits for infringement and unfair competition, while coordinating our actions across the various markets involved.
