Background

European trademark attorney. After my law degree in Fribourg (Switzerland) in 2000, I specialized in trademark law in one of the major Italian IP firms, in Rome and joined the legal department of a consumer goods group in Geneva. I worked as a trademark attorney in Leman Consulting in Nyon (CH) ten years, until 2016.

My experience enabled me to create a network of correspondents in the main regions of the world in order to get trademarks protected not only in Switzerland but also abroad.
