From registrations and oppositions to enforcement and anti-counterfeiting, our network ensures that your clients’ rights are protected consistently; across borders and languages.
IP Right helps international law firms protect their clients’ intellectual property rights through local legal representation and enforcement in Central America. In 2025, the firm reported more than 60 enforcement actions, including work involving counterfeit products and trademark infringement. This experience helps foreign legal teams respond to infringement with knowledge of local laws, procedures, and authorities.
Ricardo Zúñiga Viteri specializes in trademark enforcement, anti-counterfeiting, and intellectual property protection, with over 20 years of experience. Pilar Ogarrio brings over 30 years of experience in trademark registration, portfolio management, and international coordination. Their combined expertise helps international law firms manage intellectual property matters across Central America.
IP Right’s partners participate in international intellectual property conferences organized by AIPPI and ASIPI, addressing topics such as trademark protection, IP enforcement, and innovation. Ricardo Zúñiga Viteri has also contributed to AIPPI’s regional newsletter on intellectual property mediation in Guatemala, sharing legal developments relevant to international firms and brand owners.
Managing intellectual property across several countries requires knowledge of different legal procedures and deadlines. IP Right coordinates trademark and patent filings, IP portfolio management, and legal representation through its regional network, helping foreign law firms manage their clients’ rights while maintaining oversight of each case.
IP Right supports community development through pro bono intellectual property projects. One example is its work with the Kemonels Weavers in Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, helping local artisans with collective trademark protection and legal organization. The initiative supports their efforts to protect traditional textile creations and access international markets.
We value long-term relationships built on trust, transparency, and shared standards of excellence. If your firm manages global IP portfolios and seeks a reliable ally in Central America, we’d love to collaborate.
