Specification of the authorisation
We provide services according to the rules of legal representation. This is based on the cooperation of the parties. It comes from the nature of this legal relation that the office is obliged to handle your case professionally and carefully. In case of an application for registration the final decision is made by the authorities, and therefore the office has no responsibility in this regard. It is our policy that we do not accept cases where there is a conflict of interest in respect of our existing clients. In such cases (e.g. at an opposition against our clients) the office refuses the authorization request and refunds all effected payments. In case you feel that your matter is not treated appropriately, please turn directly to the manager of the head office. We thoroughly investigate any complaint. The operation of the office is ruled by the HU Law No. XXXII of 1995 on patent attorneys.
Annulment of an agreement
The provision of services is regulated by the rules of legal representation and mandate agreements. Generally Pintz & Partners LLC accepts mandates where one of the languages of the procedure is English and there is no conflict of interest in the representation. The mandate can be revoked any time, however any costs incurred up to that time shall be charged to and paid by you. Mandates given by using online forms are processed within a short period of time. There is no possibility for reimbursement of fees once the application is forwarded to the authorities since the mandate is completed and the authorities do not reimburse the official fees. It is not possible to amend the applications unless it is allowed by the applicable law. Our office reserves the right to refuse or to suspend any mandate requests or terminate an accepted mandate with 15 days notice. Overpayments shall be refunded, if any.
Payment via bank card
We can accept these cards through our platform:
Visa (credit and debit cards)
MasterCard (credit and debit cards)
American Express
Discover (US merchants only)
Our payment processor is Stripe. Stripe is certified PCI Service Provider Level 1. This is the most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry. To accomplish this, they use the best-in-class security tools and practices to maintain a high level of security at Stripe. For extra fraud protection, 3D Secure (3DS) requires customers to complete an additional verification step with the card issuer when paying. Typically, you direct the customer to an authentication page on their bank’s website, and they enter a password associated with the card or a code sent to their phone. This process is familiar to customers through the card networks’ brand names, such as Visa Secure and Mastercard Identity Check. Pintz & Partners does not receive or handle any information relating to your card, our office receives only a short message about the payment from the bank.
Payment via bank transfer
The fees do not include the remittance fee of your payment. All of the remittance must be paid by the order. In case we receive less payment than indicated in the business conditions, the amount shall be refunded automatically after deducting the bank charges. The application or the subject matter of the mandate is taken care of only after having received the total payment. With regards to the experience with previous applications we would like to ask our clients to please make sure that bank transfer costs are not charged to us.
