About practice
With over 90 years of expertise in Intellectual Property, MORENO BALDIVIESO was initially established as Gabriel Patent and Trademark Office in 1931. Our growth has been driven by trust, experience, and results, with a steadfast commitment to delivering high-quality, client-centric solutions that emphasize responsiveness and innovation.
We expertly manage prominent local and international Intellectual Property portfolios by streamlining the attorney-client relationship. Our team is consistently prepared to embrace and adapt to our clients’ unique needs. We approach each case with curiosity and determination, leveraging our vast experience to offer strategic and commercially astute legal advice that helps clients optimize their IP portfolios in Bolivia.
As we guide and counsel clients through the Bolivian market, we leverage the infrastructure and resources of a global firm without sacrificing our local identity. Our mission is to provide legal services that meet international standards while retaining the meticulous attention to detail and personalized approach of a boutique firm.
Bolivia undoubtedly presents distinct challenges in protecting Intellectual Property, such as bureaucratic hurdles, instability, cultural differences, or language barriers. In times of uncertainty, clients require dependable local knowledge and expertise they can trust—qualities only an established, in-country firm can offer.
Our team’s diverse background ensures adaptability, approachability, and readiness to tackle any issue at any time. Our attorneys possess a proven track record and have repeatedly addressed specific problems, enabling them to serve as seasoned players with extensive local knowledge.
We champion price transparency, emphasizing value over cost. As pricing becomes clearer to all parties involved, the true value of our services emerges more distinctly.
Our extensive experience, combined with our ongoing dedication to innovation and technology, enables us to deliver projects and services at the most competitive prices while maintaining exceptional service, quality, and innovation.
