We are proud to confirm that the philosophy at the origin of the creation of TMark has been able to rally clients and contributors that have remained loyal to our values over the years.

The ethical requirement

To undertake to do the best to protect the interests of our clients is first of all to ensure that we offer them the bests strategies at the best price. And it is above all to do it strictly respecting the ethical rules: an absolute professional confidentiality and no conflicts of interest.

Reactivity for discipline

Often, the protection procedures are a race against time, which makes our availability essential to the success of your action. For this purpose, we have implemented an “internal communication” based on continuous exchanges and an enhanced versatility of the team by providing them all with shared expertise.

The closeness of our commitment

Listening, dialog, exchange....are the key words that guide the relationship that we maintain with our clients. By making ” constantly paying attention to your needs” our guideline, we are able to adapt your projects and provide you with tailored advice. We are convinced that without this personalized relationship, no sustainable and trusting relationship can be established.

In this regard, our extranet access enabling our clients to remain permanently in contact with their resources will be entirely upgraded between now and the 1st quarter of 2023.

The opening as horizon

Because nothing is permanent except change and the domain of creation is the most blatant example, we are constantly faced with changes in the world around us. Obviously, for the benefit of our clients but also because that is what constantly pleases us in this profession.

We intervene in all countries of the world that have intellectual property legislation.
We accompany our clients in the extension of the protection of their rights, as well as in dispute resolution.

For that, the firm relies on correspondents:

- Organized in a network, in every country in the world
- Selected according to their skills and involvement
- And loyal to the TMark ethic…
