What’s Said about us?
“The teams work, client care and responsiveness are truly phenomenal”
“They are excellent”
Pan-Caribbean
“Cross-jurisdictional IP cases are bread and butter for Eproint; the IP boutique boasts unbeatable regional coverage from the Caribbean to South America, being fully acquainted with the workings of over 40 Latin American legal systems. As a result, the group has become counsel of choice for multinational marquee clients and has established itself as a top IP authority in the sub-continent – a status well-earned by duo Aaron Montero and Gabriela Bodden. A prominent brand guru, founding partner Montero has a keen eye for asset commercialisation, while IP all-rounder Bodden anchors the international practice with her unrivalled Caribbean expertise.”
“The team led by Gabriela Bodden and Aaron Montero is particularly active in the consumer goods, pharmaceuticals and luxury goods industries. Bodden has a particularly strong track record in clearance searches and trade mark prosecution, as well as advising on IP matters related to medical cannabis. The preparation and filing of patent applications makes up the majority of Montero’s work in this field of law.”
“I think it is not very helpful to go through any US firm when dealing with Latin American countries. I do not see any advantage. It is always my approach to go directly into a country, which is why we use Eproint”
“Central America”
“Gabriela Bodden and Vanessa Castro: Patent and Trademark Stars
Aaron Montero: Patent Star.”
“Thoroughly recommended for its level of responsiveness. Communication is always fast and they solve problems”
“They are very reliable and efficient. Their strength is their proficiency and expertise on IP legislation and practices covering the whole Central America and Caribbean region”
Notable practitioners
“In addition to co-managing the firm’s IP department, founding partner Aaron Montero is noted for his activity in this practice area. He is described by a commentator as “an excellent professional.”
“The Legal 500 2012 ranks the group as top tier.”
