Intellectual Property in France and Europe: A Strategic Partner for Turkish Law Firms

Are you a Turkish law firm seeking a reliable partner to handle intellectual property matters in France? You’re in the right place.

As Turkish companies grow their presence internationally, protecting their intellectual property in France has become a key strategic step. Trademarks, patents, designs, copyrights—each asset requires expert local representation to meet European legal standards.

Based in Paris, Dreyfus has over 20 years of experience assisting Turkish law firms and businesses in protecting and enforcing intellectual property rights in France and across the European Union. Our international network, deep regulatory knowledge, and responsiveness make us a trusted legal partner.

We act before the INPI (France), EUIPO (European Union), EPO (patents), and through international systems including WIPO, PCT, and The Hague Agreement.

Why work with a french IP partner ?

The European IP system operates on both national and EU-wide levels. For Turkish law firms, a local representative based in France is essential to: 

  • File trademarks, patents, and designs with INPI

  • Handle opposition, cancellation, and litigation procedures

  • Support licensing, transfers, and genuine use compliance

  • Communicate efficiently with French and EU authorities
