Tai E International Patent & Law Office moves back up to the top rank of patent prosecution this year. One client recommends Amanda Hung as a "responsive and responsible" practitioner within the firm. Enjoying a balanced split of lawyers and patent and trade mark attorneys, Tai E has over 200 staff working in four offices that serve clients like power management company Eaton Corporation, healthcare company Coloplast and Carl Walther, a German arms manufacturer.
Tai E has settled a number of matters for clients without having to enter into litigation proceedings. For example, the firm represented Chantecaille Beauté, a cosmetics and skincare brand, and resolved a commercial dispute arising from the termination of a distribution agreement with a local distributor, and advised confectionery producer Perfetti Van Melle on enforcing and protecting the rights and interests of two of its trade marks.
In terms of court matters, KYE Systems Corporation turned to the Tai E team to revoke a TIPO decision and the IP Court ruled that TIPO should accept an amendment to the claims of a patent during invalidation. The firm was further involved in an administrative suit for Aman Resorts, a luxurious resorts developer, and intervened to make statements in favour of TIPO before the IP Court in an invalidation case to enforce and protect the rights of Aman's two trade marks.
