“Intend to be a Significant Player in the Israeli IP Scene”
A major change in the field of intellectual property in Israel: Three senior partners from the Reinhold Cohn Group, decided to separate and establish a new firm called Cohn, de Vries, Stadler & Co. "We intend to be a significant factor in intellectual property”.
Dr. Ilan Cohn, David de Vries and Svetlana Stadler have set up new practice with a staff of 25 employees, that handles thousands of patent, design, and trademark cases: "We intend to be a significant factor in the field of intellectual property in Israel”.
Three patent attorneys, including the grandson of the firm's founder, are retiring from Israel’s leading intellectual property firm due to "ideological differences." More retirees from the firm are expected to join the three.
