Mr Ali E Hasan noted: “Over the years, JAH Intellectual Property has cultivated an unparalleled understanding of the region’s IP intricacies, including evolving legal frameworks, cultural sensitivities and market dynamics. This depth of experience allows us to anticipate challenges, mitigate risks and capitalise on opportunities – providing clients with strategic counsel that is informed by a proven track record of success.”

According to Mr Ali E Hasan, navigating the intricate landscape of IP law can present a formidable challenge, particularly when operating across diverse legal jurisdictions. A critical aspect of this complexity stems from the variety in legal frameworks, requiring a deep understanding of each region’s specific regulations and enforcement practices. Such issues as trademark infringement, counterfeiting and the urgent need for robust brand protection are paramount concerns for businesses operating in these regions. To address these challenges, the firm employs a comprehensive approach, beginning with meticulous and exhaustive trademark searches to identify potential conflicts before they arise. Its experts further bolster brand protection through the implementation of vigilant watch services, which involve the continuous monitoring of official gazettes and other relevant publications to detect any potential infringements.

Mr Ali E Hasan added: “In the past 12 months, JAH Intellectual Property has solidified its market position through a consistent and demonstrable track record of success, marked by significant milestones in the realm of IP management. Our strategic approach involves not only securing registrations but also providing comprehensive counsel on portfolio management, enabling clients to maximise the value of their IP assets. This is particularly evident in our work within Qatar, where we have earned the trust of such prestigious entities as the Aspire Zone Foundation and the Torch Doha.”
