Roman Brtka, LL.M.

Drawing on my years of experience, I advise German corporations and multinationals from a wide range of different sectors such as the automotive, telecommunications, media and sports industry on all matters of intellectual property law and represent them before various German courts as well as before the EUIPO and the German Federal Patent Court. In addition I regularly assist clients in drafting and negotiating contracts and with their marketing campaigns.

Outside my practice I am author of many legal publications and regularly speak on various IP topics.

I am a member of the German Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property (GRUR), the Design and Copyright Committees of the European Communities Trade Mark Association (ECTA) and the Institute for Copyright and Media Law Munich (IUM).

• Secondment in the legal department of AUDI AG, where I was responsible for all kinds of IP-related issues like trade marks, designs and copyrights and advised on consumer information on fuel economy and CO2 emissions in respect of the marketing of new passenger cars (2011).
