Intellectual property law in The Netherlands deals with IP rights, unfair competition law, Internet-related aspects, and procedural law aspects. Since Dutch IP law is of an increasingly European character, the relevant EC law aspects and the decisions of the European Court of Justice are also discussed. This volume offers a practical guidance for both in-house counsels and IP lawyers who encounter Dutch IP law issues. This text covers an area that is practised in several law firms in The Netherlands. There are only a few, however, that provide the in-depth expertise that meets the degree of sophistication demanded by the international business community.;Allen & Overy is unanimously recognized as one of the few belonging to the first tier of leading IP firms. The Amsterdam IP practice group closely co-operates with the IP departments of Allen & Overy in other countries, and Allen & Overy's cross-border CMT Group (Communications, Media, and Technology).
