Perhaps you could use
a little Leeway.
Never has your intellectual property been so important, or so valuable. Whether it’s an instantly-recognised logo, a new distribution system or your important customer data, IP occupies a central position in most modern businesses. And that means that it has never been more important to ensure that it is cleverly exploited and carefully protected.
Leeway is an Amsterdam-based law firm specialising in intellectual property and all related commercial issues and contracts. We pride ourselves on being there for our clients every day, not just when things go wrong. So we take the time to learn about every aspect of their businesses. This means that we can help you throughout the lifecycle of your products, from creation to protection to exploitation, adding value at every stage.
According to our clients, we bring a creative and practical approach to the table that is invaluable in helping them to grow. And, when things are particularly tight, our experience and dedication can make all the difference, helping them to find that little extra Leeway that makes all the difference.
Why not get in touch, and see what difference Leeway could make to you?
