Our story

Always in the Forefront

We are a leading Patent and Trade Mark Attorney Firm in India, with a legacy of landmark cases in Trade Mark and Copyright Law. We deal with Trade Mark Registration, Patent Registration, Copyright Registration and Design Registration in India and IP litigation. To meet the diverse legal needs of our global clientele, we have evolved into a full-service international law firm, handling matters across multiple fields, including Corporate Law, Maritime Law, International Trade Disputes, Arbitration and Commercial Litigation.

Biswajit Sarkar founded the firm in Kolkata to give inventors and businesses in Eastern India access to specialist intellectual property counsel. Over 36 years, it has grown into a full-service law firm with an international practice.

A notable achievement is our work in securing trade mark protection for 6 Ballygunge Place, demonstrating how an address can evolve into a distinctive and valuable brand identity for a renowned Bengali restaurant chain.

Another significant milestone is our contribution to the protection of the distinctive blue-border design of the white sari worn by the nuns of the Missionaries of Charity, founded by Mother Teresa. This work reflects not only our commitment to protecting unique visual identities but also our profound respect for an internationally admired organisation dedicated to humanitarian service.

These achievements exemplify our commitment to innovative legal thinking and our continuing endeavour to expand the possibilities of intellectual property protection in India.
