ELZABURU has taken Polonius' advice to his son in Shakespeare's Hamlet to heart: "Beware of entrance to a quarrel; but being in, bear't that th' opposed may beware of thee". Our Firm's recommendations stress conflict prevention and avoidance, but if our clients cannot resolve their differences with third parties any other way, we can offer them our unrestricted support in legal proceedings.

The members of our large team of dedicated IP litigation lawyers, averaging over 18 years of courtroom experience, bring their professional knowledge and skills to bear in the service of our clients. The primary aim of the lawyers in our Firm's contentious practice is to seek the fastest and most effective legal remedy at the lowest cost. ELZABURU takes pride in offering its clients a realistic and pragmatic picture of their actual prospects and in not advocating action unless there is a reasonable assurance of success.

More often than not we act on behalf of right holders whose rights have been infringed, but we also vigorously defend our clients who face claims of infringement, nullity actions, or claims seeking to recover rights. ELZABURU has taken part in litigation of international significance and regularly acts before the Community Trade Mark and Design Court in Alicante.

Our litigation team's capacity for swift mobilization and reaction stand us in good stead when the situation calls for interim measures or conflicts need to be resolved appropriately without delay. Aside from our high standards of excellence, our clients are assured permanently open lines of communication, providing ongoing information as to the status of proceedings and timely reports of developments.
