Question 1

What types of intellectual property can be protected in Israel?

Accepted Answer

Israeli law provides protection for trademarks, copyrights, patents, designs, and trade secrets. The appropriate form of protection depends on the nature of your creation or innovation. We help clients identify which protections apply and develop a comprehensive strategy.

Question 2

Do I need to register my copyright in Israel?

Accepted Answer

Copyright protection in Israel arises automatically upon creation of an original work—registration is not required. However, maintaining clear documentation of authorship, creation dates, and version history can be critical for enforcement.

Question 3

How long does trademark registration take in Israel?

Accepted Answer

The trademark registration process in Israel typically takes 12–18 months from filing to registration, depending on whether objections or oppositions are filed. We guide clients through the entire process—from clearance search through filing and registration.

Question 4

Can AI-generated content be protected by copyright?

Accepted Answer

This is an evolving area of law globally. Current Israeli copyright law requires a human author, raising questions about AI outputs. We advise clients on practical strategies to protect AI-related works, manage associated risks, and structure workflows for stronger legal positions.

Question 5

What should startups prioritize regarding intellectual property?

Accepted Answer

Early-stage companies should focus on: securing their brand (trademark filings), confirming IP ownership (especially with co-founders and contractors through proper assignment agreements), understanding open-source and third-party licensing obligations, and conducting an IP audit before fundraising.

Question 6

Do you represent international clients?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We regularly advise international clients on Israeli IP matters and coordinate with counsel in other jurisdictions for cross-border IP strategies—including trademark registration, copyright enforcement, and technology licensing.

Question 7

What industries do you typically work with?

Accepted Answer

Our clients span technology startups, SaaS platforms, AI companies, digital content creators, e-commerce businesses, and established brands. We focus on clients where intellectual property and technology are central to business value.

Question 8

What is internet defamation and what can be done about it?

Accepted Answer

Internet defamation (lashon hara) is the publication of harmful, false, or degrading content on social media, review platforms, forums, or news sites. A cease-and-desist letter can often lead to removal within days. Where the publisher refuses, we pursue injunctive relief and damages in court. The earlier you act, the less the content spreads.

Question 9

Someone is infringing my copyright — what do I do?

Accepted Answer

First, document the infringement (screenshots, URLs, dates). Then contact us promptly — an immediate takedown notice or platform complaint can often remove the content quickly. In parallel, we assess whether civil proceedings for damages are warranted. Acting fast significantly improves your chances of a full remedy.

Question 10

How much does an intellectual property attorney cost?

Accepted Answer

Cost depends on the type of service: trademark registration is typically a fixed fee; advisory retainers are monthly; litigation is billed by the hour or on a case basis. We are transparent about fees from the first call. Contact us for a no-obligation quote tailored to your specific situation.

Question 11

Can a trademark be registered in Israel?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Trademark registration in Israel is handled through the Israel Patent Office. The process takes 12–18 months and grants exclusive rights to use the mark for ten years, renewable indefinitely. Early filing is advisable — rights are generally granted to the first applicant.
