My Background and Focus

Janet joined MBM in February 2024 as a Trademark Agent and will be heading MBM’s Montreal Office. Before joining MBM, Janet worked for over 24 years as a Trademark Agent at two Montreal law firms, during which time she led the Intellectual Property department of one of these firms for over 10 years.

She focuses her practice on the management and protection of trademarks, copyrights and industrial designs. Throughout her career, she has always worked closely with her clients, guiding them through the entire trademark process, both nationally and internationally, and counselling them in cases of opposition and summary expungement. Janet is a member of the Intellectual Property Institute of Canada and the International Trademark Association. She is fully bilingual in French and English.

In her spare time, Janet enjoys cooking, baking, and cycling as much as she can. She is also an avid reader of the New Yorker magazine.
