Bryn Aarflot incorporates patent and trademark agency

Norwegian IP law firm Bryn Aarflot has added three patent attorneys and an attorney-at-law to its practice by incorporating a patent and trademark agency, the firm announced in October 2010.

Patent attorneys Arnhild Fiskaa, Gunnar Østensen and Lars Hatlen, join from J.K. Thorsens Patentbureau, as well as attorney-at-law Tore Arnfinn Ødegård, the former head of the design division at the Norwegian Industrial Property Office.

Kristine Aarflot, chief executive officer at Bryn Aarflot, said: “Bryn Aarflot and J.K. Thorsens complement each other by having our strengths in different technical disciplines, and also by having our main client and associate bases in different parts of the world.”
