Practice Areas Overview :


Patents

H.A.D.S provides services in the patenting of our clients' important technological advances, enabling them to create/protect their market share, and able to assist start-up companies in building strong patent portfolios which could enable these companies to attract investors and/or licensees.

Our people have the technical expertise to understand sophisticated technologies, and the legal expertise to provide technically sound, yet creative, approaches for protecting our clients' inventions in a wide variety of technical fields.

Our goal is to work closely with the management, marketing, and technical personnel of our clients to better anticipate their needs and problems and also to create a comprehensive patent strategy to meet our client's individual needs.

By virtue of our in-house technical library and sophisticated on-line search facilities, we are able to conduct searches in virtually any technological area to ascertain the state of the art. These searching capabilities allow us to provide our clients with expert opinions concerning the patentability of prospective new inventions; the validity of competitors' patents; and whether our clients' proposed products infringe competitors' patents. Further, as a result of our analysis of the prior art in the technological field being addressed, our clients are able to make important decisions concerning commercialization and protection of their important developments.

Our understanding of our clients' technologies enables us to mirror our clients' creativity with creativity of our own in identifying patent issues and potential patent positions. Our expertise allows us to take a proactive role, guiding our clients from the beginnings of an invention to gaining a position in the marketplace. Often, our attorneys assist inventors in reviewing data from their laboratory notebooks, suggest further experiments if necessary, and help identify patentable aspects of an inventor's work. As a result, our clients have been able to identify and protect important aspects of their technology, and have been able to develop strong patent positions to protect their important inventions.

Trademark

The name chosen for a product, a business, or a service can have a profound effect on the success of a business. Selecting a name without adequate investigation can have a devastating effect.
We actively assist our clients in choosing their trademarks, service marks and trade names. We conduct and analyze the results of sophisticated mark and design searches and file and prosecute state and foreign applications for trademark and service mark registration.

Copyrights

H.A.D.S advises clients on a wide variety of copyright issues, including the subject matter of copyright, requirements for copyright protection, obtaining registration of copyrights and the transfer and licensing of copyrights.

Litigation

It is our goal to find solutions which enable our clients to avoid the costs associated with litigation. However, there are times when disputes cannot be readily resolved and the only alternative is to turn to the courts. As a full service intellectual property law firm, H.A.D.S actively practices before the district courts, including the Court of Appeals, and in inter parties proceedings before the Indonesian Patent and Trademark Office also before the Indonesian Courts. Our litigators have a broad range of litigation experience relating to patent, trademark, copyright, unfair competition, and related issues. We pride ourselves on our record of obtaining favorable results through both litigated verdict or negotiated settlement, at a fair price to our clients.
