Infringements

In case of infringement of the patent right, the patent holder has at his disposal legal measures against the infringer prescribed by Patent Act. Given the complexity of such legal proceedings and possible countermeasures by infringers, if you are not familiar with patent law, it is advisable in this case to seek the help of professional representatives.

In the event of infringements of the right, the holder of the utility model, i.e. the unexamined right based on it, cannot demand the exercise of civil protection. In order to establish infringement of rights in court proceedings, it is necessary to submit a request to the Office for a substantive examination of the utility model with the payment of the prescribed fees and the submission of evidence that proceedings for infringement of rights have been initiated. In such a case, the Office shall urgently carry out the substantive examination procedure.
