An effective patent strategy needs to be based on effective, targeted invention capture and competitor analysis.
As well as being patent attorneys, we’re a team of scientists and engineers with a wide range of specialities, and extensive experience of the UK and European Patent Offices known for securing high quality patents for our clients. Our team includes patent attorneys qualified to represent you in post grant proceedings before the European Patent Office and the Unified Patent Court (UPC). We also have lawyers qualified to represent you before the UPC.
We take a realistic approach to contentious matters, and evaluate the associated costs and benefits early on to ensure that we achieve your aims efficiently, including advising whether the UPC or national courts offer the most effective forum.
