CSR and Pro Bono

Your trust drives a broader purpose.

We regard the law as a public good, and our commitment to Colombia is long-standing: since 1991, the Asociación Cavelier has supported outstanding students and fostered legal research throughout the country. Our lawyers complement this commitment with pro bono work, both in Colombia and through international association networks.

Pro Bono

Technical expertise at the service of our community.

Access to patent protection should never be limited by financial resources. Our attorneys provide pro bono counsel to independent inventors and underserved communities that would otherwise be left out of the system. We do so through two leading international programs:

01.

Inventor Assistance Program (IAP) — WIPO

An initiative of the World Intellectual Property Organization that connects under-resourced inventors and small businesses with patent attorneys who provide pro bono work. Colombia is one of ten countries worldwide participating in the program.

Our patent attorneys support the inventors assigned to them in protecting their inventions before the national office and, where appropriate, through the international PCT route.

02.

ASIPI Pro Bono

A program of the Inter-American Association of Intellectual Property that offers free intellectual property advice to individuals, vulnerable communities, and micro and small businesses across the Americas and Spain.

As a participating firm, we handle the patent matters referred to us through the program.

Our Band 1 ranking in Intellectual Property carries a fundamental responsibility: putting that benchmark standard at the service of society.
