Ron Klagsblad heads the firm’s Intellectual Property practice. He brings decades of experience advising on the protection, enforcement, and commercialization of intellectual property, and is widely regarded for his ability to handle complex, high-stakes IP matters for leading Israeli and international clients.
Ron’s professional background combines deep legal training with a strong international outlook. Following his military service, he studied French language and culture at the Sorbonne University in Paris, an experience that shaped his global perspective and cross-cultural approach. He later earned his LL.B from Tel Aviv University and went on to build extensive experience as a senior attorney at leading Israeli IP law firms. He subsequently served as managing partner of his own boutique intellectual property firm, before joining the firm to lead its IP department.
His practice spans all aspects of intellectual property law, including the protection, enforcement, and commercial use of IP rights. He has represented leading Israeli companies and international corporations across a wide range of sectors, including retail, food, fashion, music, and hospitality. Ron regularly represents large clients in complex litigation and enforcement proceedings before all relevant courts in Israel, and advises on strategic IP disputes that are critical to business continuity and brand value.
In parallel, he accompanies Israeli companies in cross-border transactions with leading international counterparts. His long-standing relationships with top law firms worldwide enable him to manage multi-jurisdictional matters efficiently and to coordinate effective global strategies for his clients.
Ron is highly active in the professional community. He serves as a panelist at WIPO in domain-name dispute proceedings, is an active member of the Intellectual Property Committee of the Israel Bar Association, and is a member of leading international organizations, including INTA and AIPPI.
