Assignments and Transfers

Best Rechtsanwälte has a long standing and in-depth experience in the handling of the recordal of trademark assignments of world-wide trademark portfolios from one owner to another, as well as the handling of changes of name and entity. During the many years of their trademark practice in industry and in a private law firm the partners of Best Rechtsanwälte have built up a successful and reliable relationship with the finest IP law firms all over the world.

Based on its background Best Rechtsanwälte can offer its clients a smooth and cost-effective transfer of trademark portfolios world-wide. The firm has negotiated special fees with its associates all over the world. Due to the acquired know-how in such matters Best Rechtsanwälte is also able to offer very low handling fees itself. The fees of Best Rechtsanwälte and of its associates depend on the volume of the portfolio to be transferred. Substantial savings are possible if there is a large number of trademark applications and registrations to be transferred at the same time.

The amount of work and, consequently, also the fees involved further depend on the type of change that has to be recorded. Is it an assignment with assignment documents to be prepared for each country? Or is it simply a change of name and / or of entity? In some cases there have been even several name changes and assignments over the years which never have been recorded in the registers. We therefore ask our clients to give us an overview on the concrete work to be done and on the number of applications and registrations concerned in each country and will then make an offer regarding the fees involved.
