Our friends over at the China Law Blog have posted on an issue that leads to a good deal of work for my IP litigation practice at my Korean office of my law firm.
If you don’t want the added cost of litigating a matter in a Korean court, please register your trademark in Korea. No. No. No. Registering in the U.S. and the E.U. is not enough. Your “international filing” only gives you a grace period to file in other nations that have signed onto particular international treaties.
As the China Law Blog notes:
Replace the word Korea with China and reread.
