Suvi Haavisto is an expert in intellectual property law, with a strong focus on trademarks, designs, domain names and brand protection. She is passionate about guiding clients through the often complex and evolving landscape of intellectual property rights, ensuring that their innovations, brands and business assets are safeguarded. Suvi is an authorized trademark attorney in Finland, a licensed legal counsel authorized to represent clients in courts in Finland as well as a European Trade Mark and European Union Design Attorney.

Suvi holds a Master of Laws (LL.M.) and a Master of Science in Economics and Business Administration (M.Sc.). This unique combination of legal and business education enables her to address intellectual property matters from both a legal and strategic perspective. She not only assists clients with the prosecution and enforcement of IP rights but also advises on the legal aspects of commercial agreements.

Her professional background includes valuable in-house experience at a technology company, where she drafted and negotiated various types of agreements, including SaaS and GDPR agreements. Prior to that, she has worked as an attorney-at-law, advising clients across diverse industries on IP protection and enforcement. This blend of in-house and law firm experience has shaped her pragmatic, solution-oriented approach to legal challenges.
At Boco IP, Suvi has played an essential role in expanding the firm’s service offerings. Under her contribution, the firm now provides comprehensive legal support not only in traditional IP prosecution and enforcement but also in a wide array of contracts. Suvi ensures that clients receive tailored solutions that protect their competitive edge while supporting their long-term business objectives.
