Practice Areas

Intellectual Property, Media & Entertainment

Intellectual Property Law is possibly one of the bulwarks of the firm’s practice and GVTH is considered to be one of the top local firms in this area, with its practice and expertise vastly acknowledged within the local business community. The firm also enjoys the custom of a substantial number of clients. Recent amendments to the Trademark, Patent and Copyright Acts have brought Maltese law in line with EU standards and consequentially the firm has continued to provide a myriad of services in this area of law, including the new areas of service mark and domain name registration. Apart from dealing with the registration of trademarks, the Intellectual Property Department also caters for client’s needs in the areas of protection and infringement and pursues several claims for enforcement and anti-counterfeiting as well as for passing off and unlawful competition.
