At CBO, we simplify your access to a market as complex as it is strategic: China. Our mission is clear: to protect your trademarks through comprehensive and transparent support. We assist you from clearance searches and filing to legal monitoring and the active defence of your rights—guiding you every step of the way.
CBO is an independent Franco-Chinese structure specialized in the legal protection of trademarks in China. The project was initiated by French professionals living in Shanghai for over 15 years, alongside local jurists and experts with a Shanghai Hukou, giving us direct and stable access to administrative and judicial institutions. Our strength lies in this fully integrated bicultural team, enabling us to provide tailored support without language or cultural barriers. Our teams work daily in French, English, and Chinese. This fluidity is essential when dealing with complex issues such as trademark filings, anti-counterfeiting actions, or commercial dispute management in a highly specific legal environment.
CBO stands out through an ethical, accessible, and transparent approach. Our pricing is clear, published, and explained from the first contact—a deliberate contrast to the opaque practices often found in the IP market, where costs can soar without justification. We are committed to offering viable, realistic, and above all sustainable solutions to protect the interests of foreign businesses in China. By working with trusted and recognized institutional partners, our approach is built on both reliability and education: we don’t just “handle” your trademark—we explain each step, the stakes, risks, and remedies, so that you always stay in control. We build this legal bridge between France and China every day—clearly and without shortcuts.
