Francesca Lampugnani

Trademark attorney
Francesca is a member of our department for managing, developing and maintaining existing clients and acquiring new clients. Her work consists of providing reports to clients on their intellectual property rights for various purposes (commercial analysis, tax incentive requirements, contracts, and due diligence).

In addition, Francesca accompanies clients in the delicate phase when they choose our firm to manage their intellectual property rights which had previously been managed by other firms, or which were included in an acquisition; in particular, she handles all the necessary activities to ensure a smooth and risk-free transfer, from the initial contact with the client, with previous representatives, and foreign counsel, to assuming the mandate before national and supranational Patent and Trademark Offices.

She has also gained experience in providing advice preliminary to the renewal of national and foreign trademarks, in analyzing territorial protection and protection of goods and services, and in identifying practical solutions for clients to optimize their trademark portfolios, such as seniority claims and replacement.

She conducts her consultancy activities for small, medium and large companies operating in many different sectors, including telecommunications, fashion and large-scale retail distribution.

Francesca obtained her degree in linguistics with a thesis titled “The staff selection process”, after completing a training internship with a recruitment company.
