Design registration

A design registration protects your 2D or 3D design. You can get design protection under the condition that the design is new.

Copyright

Copyright is a comprehensive right: every original piece of work can be copyright protected. Whether it’s a website design, the appearance of a shoe, the text in a brochure or a new building: these can all be protected by copyright.

Conflict resolution

If you have a trademark or copyright conflict, Chiever can help you find the solution. If possible, through mediation, but if necessary through legal proceedings.
