Intellectual Property

Build, Protect and Monetize your Intangible Property

Intellectual property rights are a key driver of competitiveness, growth and long-term value. We help clients protect, defend and commercialize their IP in Finland and internationally — whether the matter concerns patents, designs, trademarks, trade secrets or other intangible assets. Our advice supports both day-to-day IP needs and high-stakes situations, including disputes, transactions and strategic change.

A distinguishing feature of their practice is their commitment to understanding each client’s unique objectives and concerns, allowing them to tailor their strategies accordingly.

Legal 500

Comprehensive Advisory for the Whole IP Lifecycle

HPP offers a wide range of legal services covering identification and acquisition of IP, registrations and portfolio management, enforcement, and dispute resolution. We identify and protect our clients’ most valuable intangible assets, build and optimize IP portfolios, and represent clients in disputes, settlement negotiations, administrative proceedings, litigation and arbitration relating to infringement and misuse of IP rights.

We advise on IP transactions as standalone matters and as part of broader business transactions such as business transfers and M&A.

Beyond disputes and transactions, we advise on the full range of commercial IP issues: contracts, confidentiality and trade secrets, employment-related IP, and marketing law and unfair competition. We also advise on regulatory matters – particularly in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and food – and on emerging topics such as generative AI.
