SESSION 1
DESIGN LAW FOR THE TRADEMARK LAWYER
Although protecting distinctive product designs is still
possible under trademark law,
it is not the only and may
not be the best option.
Learn about other
types of legal protection available for designs, including copyright, design patents and
Community
Designs,
and discover what elements of designs are protectable and how best to protect them. The advantages and disadvantages of the
methods of protection will be explored, as well as enforcement
issues associated with each option.
