Founded in 1964, Beuchat Barros & Pfenniger is focused on intellectual property, but offers complementary services in other areas of practice, including general corporate and commercial law. In recent years, the firm has been growing its local and international client base and competitors noted that it is "doing well in trade mark matters", with particular expertise in litigation. One rival remarked: "It's a small firm but it's trustworthy."
Over the past year, the firm has employed a new attorney and a new engineer. It has been developing its business in unfair competition trials, which are becoming increasingly common both in Chile and other emerging markets such as China. It maintains a network of correspondents all over the world and is in contact with international associations dedicated to the study, promotion and revision of IP laws.
