About Apiwatt Kongsoowan

As an IP lawyer, Apiwatt strongly believes in human creativity, be it a brand, an artistic expression, or an innovation. He is named by Managing IP as Thailand’s IP Stars: Trademark in 2018 and 2019.

Apiwatt has a thriving trademark prosecution practice. For him, effective communication is no less important than legal knowledge. He believes that to solve legal issues is to understand business needs and achieve them under a practical, cost-wise approach for clients to make better decisions faster. His legal advice is directly in point, concise, and solution-focused.

Apiwatt helps businesses in various fields acquire trademark protection in Thailand and other countries around the world. Neighboring countries including Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam are where he has been practicing daily in collaboration with local associates.

Apiwatt understands trademark practice from a global perspective. Many Thai businesses entrust him with brand strategies for foreign markets. He has fought hard to bring clients’ brands back from trademark squatters in China and Vietnam, to name a few.

In addition to serving clients at the firm, Apiwatt sits as Committee Member on Trademarks in Intellectual Property Association of Thailand (IPAT). Since 2013, he helps IPAT grow public understandings on IP laws and work with the government to develop the trademark law and practice. Outside Thailand, he represents Thailand Recognized Group in the Copyright Committee of Asian Patent Attorneys Association (APAA) since 2015.

Currently Apiwatt is one of the partners who lead the firm’s trademark prosecution teams serving clients worldwide.
