Intellectual Property
Our Intellectual Property (IP) Law practice is one of Sri Lanka’s foremost service offerings, consistently setting the bar for excellence in the field. The practice provides comprehensive legal services to both local and international clients, offering expertise in trade mark, patent and design filings, while also meticulously managing IP portfolios. Our commitment to excellence is evident in our ability to navigate both contentious and non-contentious IP matters. We regularly represent clients in enforcement cases before the National Intellectual Property Office (NIPO) of Sri Lanka, ensuring that their IP rights are vigorously protected.
Led by our Managing Partner, Ramani Muttettuwegama, alongside Practice Head Michael Paiva, Ashvini Prabakaran (Associate) and Yanik Müller (Executive), our team brings a wealth of experience and industry knowledge. Each member of the team is dedicated to delivering strategic, reliable and cost-effective legal services. As one client noted in The Legal 500, “The team’s expertise and responsiveness are unmatched, making them an invaluable partner for IP matters in Sri Lanka.”
The firm’s IP practice has garnered significant praise for its professionalism, attention to detail and ability to offer tailored solutions to a diverse range of clients. This has enabled us to build and maintain relationships with notable multinational corporations and law firms across various sectors. Clients consistently highlight our “highly responsive” approach and our “exceptional level of service” in the protection and enforcement of their IP rights.
Our firm continues to lead the way in Sri Lanka’s legal landscape, supported by a strong team and a commitment to delivering exceptional legal solutions.
