What’s Said about us?
“Central America”
“Gabriela Bodden and Vanessa Castro: Patent and Trademark Stars
Aaron Montero: Patent Star.”
“…one of IP’s finest..”
“Well-regarded boutique firm with significant experience within the IP ambit. Recognised for working on trade mark registrations. Handles cross-border mandates and regularly manages regional portfolios, with a strong presence in the Caribbean. Also adept in contentious mandates, dealing with IP litigation and anti-counterfeiting cases.Strengths One interviewee notes: “They are an excellent firm, dedicated purely to IP with great professionals.”
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.”
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.”
“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”
“Gabriela Bodden co-heads the department and possesses know-how across a range of IP matters, with strong experience handling trade mark registration across the Caribbean region. Market sources describe her as “key to the firm.” Another commentator remarks that “she has a strong background in IP and is successful at attracting clients.”
“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”
“The Legal 500 2012 ranks the group as top tier.”
“An outstanding cohort of associates at the firm take inspiration from Gabriella Bodden and Aaron Montero. Bodden brings incredible international expertise to the practice and is brilliant at getting things done in the Caribbean and other locales. Meanwhile, Montero is a patent and trademark ace and a veritable IPauthority.”
