French and European capabilities
Start with the matter, not the legal menu
Dreyfus supports IP firms, in-house teams and companies across Asia with France and EU intellectual property matters spanning brands, products, technology and other strategic assets.
Tell us the commercial objective, territory and deadline. We connect the matter to the appropriate filing, contract, monitoring or enforcement route.

Two cooperation routes
The same expertise, adapted to the party giving the instruction
IP firms and professionals across Asia can instruct Dreyfus as their French and EU local counsel. Asian companies can work with us directly through their legal, international business, brand or management teams.
We focus on French and EU IP matters and do not present ourselves as advisers on the local laws of Asian jurisdictions.
IP firm partnership
White-label or visible local counsel with agreed contact and reporting rules.
Direct company support
Advice connected to launch, growth, portfolio and enforcement priorities.
One internal route
The matter is coordinated across the relevant Dreyfus specialists.
