Gökçe Bal focuses on intellectual property law, with particular experience in trademark and design litigation, as well as proceedings before the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office. Her work includes opposition and appeal proceedings, the management of trademark and design applications, and enforcement measures including online takedown proceedings.
In recent years, she has mainly worked on trademark infringement and unfair competition disputes, with a focus on lookalike products in the food sector. Alongside litigation, her work often involves monitoring and maintaining portfolios, identifying risks, and taking steps against conflicting applications. This ensures that litigation strategies are supported by broader portfolio considerations.
She also advises clients in industries such as consumer goods, retail, and accommodation services. Her practice typically combines litigation, opposition work, and enforcement strategies with the day-to-day management of portfolios, reflecting the variety of issues that arise in protecting intellectual property rights.
