BCF

BCF's Intellectual Property (IP) team plays a pivotal role in optimizing the value of clients' innovations, fostering growth, and propelling businesses forward. Comprising a cohesive multidisciplinary team of commercial and litigation lawyers, patent attorneys, patent agents, and trademark agents, we provide comprehensive services directly before key intellectual property offices, from the Canadian Intellectual Property Office to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the European Patent Office. Our unique approach sets us apart, representing clients directly before the U.S. patent office without the need for intermediaries, thanks to our team's inclusion of U.S. citizen patent agents.

We offer a one-stop shop solution for protecting and leveraging intellectual property across the United States, Europe, and Canada. Unlike many Canadian firms, we handle U.S. patent matters directly, showcasing our commitment to streamlining processes for our clients.
