Our Firm
Independent IP Boutique
Pairs is an independent law firm dedicated to intellectual property.
Drawing on transversal capabilities (patents, trademarks, copyright, designs, software) and multi-sector expertise in intellectual property, we are in a position to provide solutions as pragmatic as bold to your various challenges. Together, we turn your intangible assets into genuine drivers of growth.
With significant experience in intellectual property litigation, we are able to support you at every stage of your project, from protecting your industrial, digital and artistic creations and innovations, to defending your rights before the relevant courts.
The firm also handles all matters related to intellectual property (such as trade secrets, unfair competition, parasitic behavior, personal data, privacy and image rights).
Strategic Thinking as Creative as Your Projects
At Pairs, we firmly believe that your creations deserve better than a one-size-fits-all legal solution.
That is why every assignment begins with a thorough understanding of your needs and objectives. We then work closely with you to develop the most effective protection and defence strategies, building on your sector-specific knowledge and taking into account your economic and operational requirements.
We apply all our rigour, analytical acuity and experience to resolving your issues, and we stand out for our curiosity, top technical expertise and resolutely creative approach.
Responsiveness, critical thinking and creativity are the cornerstones of our legal support.
“A high impact strategy comes from the integration of diverse perspectives.”

Our Commitments
Ethical and Sustainable Practices
Economic performance is only truly meaningful when it is built on ethical and sustainable practices.
Preserving our environment and natural resources is a shared responsibility. It is therefore out of deep conviction that we take daily steps to minimize our carbon footprint and make our business as respectful of the planet as possible.
Among these measures, we are committed to:
- prioritizing train travel over air travel whenever possible, and limiting non-essential trips;
- reducing printing to what is strictly necessary;
- sorting, recycling, reusing, and choosing responsible materials;
- limiting the use of plastic and replacing it with sustainable alternatives;
- optimizing our energy consumption, both in our offices and in our digital practices;
- ensuring the responsible, secure, and ethical use of artificial intelligence and advanced information technologies.
Equality and Diversity
We guarantee fair treatment to everyone — employees, clients and partners — regardless of their background, beliefs, gender, age or experience.
This commitment is genuine and deeply held: it lies at the heart of how we operate, guided by integrity and mutual respect.
Diversity of backgrounds, cultures and perspectives is a source of strength. We actively cultivate it in our recruitment, our partnerships and our day-to-day practices.
We place the physical and mental wellbeing of everyone at the centre of our priorities. We firmly believe that balance is the foundation of a sustainable, sincere and effective working relationship.
Training and Education
We are committed to sharing our knowledge and expertise with both rigor and care. Supporting younger professionals in their development is a responsibility we take seriously, and a source of pride.
We strive to create a healthy, stimulating, and welcoming environment where everyone feels encouraged to ask questions, think critically, and express both their ideas and their doubts without fear of judgment.
