Description

The new Trade Marks Act represents a comprehensive review of this area of law. The Act brings UK Law into line with EC policy and makes registration of trade marks easier and even more worthwhile. This book, written by a lawyer experienced in intellectual property law, guides the reader through all the new measures. It explains what can be registered as a mark; describes the new streamlined registration procedures; outlines rights and remedies open to trade mark owners; and explains the new provisions on licensing and assigning marks. It also covers the development of EC-wide protection and the new Community Trade Mark. The full text of the new Act is included.
