About me

As an IP attorney, mediator, and business consultant, I specialize in intellectual property law, IP strategy, and art law, offering pragmatic, business-aligned legal solutions to clients across industries. As a partner at STARKS, I bring over 17 years of expertise in intellectual property rights—including trademarks, industrial designs, copyright, patents, and licensing—as well as art law and mediation for complex disputes. My legal career began in Latvia in 2004, and since then, I have advised clients on IP portfolio management, strategic enforcement, and contractual negotiations, ensuring their intellectual assets are protected and leveraged effectively. As a Latvian Patent and Trademark Attorney and a European Trademark and Design Attorney since 2008, I have extensive experience in filings, negotiations, licensing agreements, and dispute resolution. In addition to my legal expertise, I hold an MBA from Vlerick Business School, which allows me to provide clients with strategic business insights, ensuring their IP portfolios align with their broader commercial objectives. My mediation work at the Court of Arbitration for Art and WIPO Green reflects my ability to resolve disputes efficiently and equitably. I am committed to helping businesses and creatives navigate the complex world of intellectual property and art law, combining legal precision with strategic vision to deliver practical, results-oriented solutions.
