Maria Immonen
About
Like most people, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, especially my grandchildren. I like to go out and listen to live blues/rock and on my evenings off I often sit in front of the TV and cuddle.
Experience and drivers
I joined the industry in 1987 and work as a coordinator in all types of intellectual property matters and have a lot of contact with clients. You can come to me with your questions, if I can answer them I will, otherwise I will connect you with the right person at our firm. In my role as a partner, I have a driving force to be involved in moving our company forward so that we can be successful together with our customers.
Maria Parts
About
I am a driven person who likes to keep several balls in the air and a lot to do. In my free time I like to exercise, spend time with family and friends or walk the dog. From November 2023 I am on parental leave.
Experience and drivers
At Bergenstråhle, I work as a Business Lawyer with a commercial focus and expertise in general contract law. I advise clients regarding i.a. corporate law, contract drafting and negotiation as well as compliance (GDPR, consumer law, etc.) and often help with license agreements, reseller agreements, general business terms, consulting agreements, transfer agreements and the like, but also with compliance with GDPR and consumer law. Bergenstråhle is a full-service IP firm and our clients do not need to hire another firm for advice outside the direct intellectual property field.
Martin Sauer
About
In my spare time, I mostly deal with logistics issues around young family members’ activities, in between squeezing in my own training and relaxation. I am mostly outdoors and preferably in the forest, at sea or among mountains and on snow. More cooking reels than cooking but preferably the latter.
Experiences and drivers
I am a partner, IP consultant and European patent attorney in our Mechanics/Electronics team with a broad experience from the actual creation of IP, to strategy and valuation issues. As an account manager for a number of clients, I am driven by developing their opportunities to create value from their IP and help them achieve their business goals. The role is exciting and with the client’s business in focus, it includes relationship building, customer development, management of customer teams and consulting work in assignments / projects.
