What’s Said about us?
“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.”
“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.”
“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”
“They are excellent”
“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”
“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.”
“IP boutique E-Proint collaborates with the firm’s offices in Belize, Honduras, Guatemala, the Dominican Republic and the Cayman Islands to provide large and small companies with intellectual property services, covering trademarks and patents, health registrations and customs issues.”
“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.”
Costa Rica
“Unbeatable in terms of its coverage of the Central American and Caribbean regions, Eproint excels at delivering sophisticated and customised cross-border IP strategies to well-known international brands. Especially strong when it comes to trademarks – but proficient in all areas of intellectual property – the team renders commercially astute advice and proves itself not only efficient handling routine matters but also highly adept at dealing with complex trademark issues, such as designation of origin disputes and non-traditional trademark protection.”
“The teams work, client care and responsiveness are truly phenomenal”
