Pascaline has more than 15 years of experience as attorney-at-law in intellectual property law, contract law and in innovation law.

She has been working with CASALONGA since 2011, and advises French and International companies in all areas of intellectual property law (trademarks, patents, designs, copyrights, unfair competition, advertising, IT and Internet). Her practice includes both counselling and litigation.

Pascaline assists clients in their global innovation strategy, in the drafting and negotiation of their various contracts and in the defense of their rights before the French courts before which she pleads. She works on trademark, design, software and patent litigation in various fields (mechanics engineering, information technology, sports equipment, health devices, etc.).

Her skills enable her to deal with a wide range of issues related to intellectual property, such as commercial law and unfair competition, innovation valuation, intellectual property tax law, as well as all IT issues (NICT, software, Internet, GDRP, etc.) on which she provides training to clients.

She has also acquired a recognized experience in the valuation of IP assets and in portfolios and contracts audits.

Based in our Toulouse office since 2019, she ensures its development, in liaison with the Paris team.
