International Plant Variety Protection Strategy

Intellectual property rights are territorial, and procedures vary by jurisdiction. Assessments and recommendations inform a decision. They do not determine how an office, a court or a counterparty will decide. Search results are preliminary and support a decision. They do not establish registrability, freedom to operate, validity or non-infringement. Drafting, filing and prosecution support prepare and pursue an application. Grant or registration depends on examination and is never assured. Where a jurisdiction requires representation or a formal legal opinion, Horiant coordinates with appropriately qualified patent attorneys, trademark attorneys, advocates, agents or local counsel.
