Pre-Trial Protection of IP Rights

Pre-Trial Protection of IP Rights

In accordance with the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan, a violation of IP rights entails civil, administrative or criminal liability. Moreover, a violation means the following acts:

• illegal use of intellectual property;
• unauthorised introduction into civilian turnover.

There are various reasons, for which the issues related to the violation of IP rights are better solved using the pre-trial procedure. Such reasons include the uncertainty of the IP owner regarging one or another violator, and the possibility of stopping the violator’s activity without initiating proceedings. The Department of Intellectual Property therefore offers a variety of ways for pre-trial protection of your IP rights, which include the following legal actions.

Our services:

• preparation and sending of the warning letters to a violator;
• application to law enforcement agencies.
