Entertainment and Advertising Law

Luiz Leonardos & Advogados has an exclusive team to conduct procedures with the National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA). We advise clients on regulatory matters and act to maintain clients' exclusivity rights over data packages, as provided by the TRIPS Agreement (Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights) and based on local provisions regulating unfair competition. These rights are essential for research-based pharmaceutical companies, which need to send large volumes of information to ANVISA to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of their product innovations. In certain situations, compliance with exclusivity rights over data packages is the only way to prevent generic industry companies from using the innovative manufacturer's data package to obtain approval for their generic versions, instead of conducting their own clinical tests.

The professionals at Luiz Leonardos & Advogados provide advice on all matters related to copyright, including advising and obtaining copyright registrations for our clients' works. We conduct infringement analyses and implement legal strategies for copyright protection.

To meet the specific needs of the fashion industry, our firm advises clients in the apparel, accessories, leather goods, and luxury sectors, covering the protection of intellectual property assets (trademarks, patents, industrial designs, and copyright), the structuring of agreements, strategic counseling, anti-piracy and anti-counterfeiting measures, and extrajudicial and judicial proceedings involving fashion-related disputes, among other services.
