Our diverse client base appreciates our high-quality and mixed approach (legal and technical expertise) based on the intense cooperation between attorneys-at-law – handling infringement cases before all relevant courts through all instances on the one hand, and patent attorneys representing the client in proceedings before the Patent Offices, including the UPC and the Federal Patent Court on the other hand.

We have been involved in about 1/3 of all UPC cases since day 1 of the UPC making us the leading firm at the UPC.

We are also in a position to offer the invaluable input of our senior consultants who in their previous careers were leading German IP judges or members of the Boards of Appeal of the European Patent Office (EPO).
