JUVE Comment
Compared to the market leaders, this patent attorney firm is not seen as often in high-profile disputes when it comes to patent infringement and revocation claims before the Dutch patent courts. But the patent attorneys are visible in some smaller cases, e.g. for Kirenko and Noba. Some of the firm’s individuals still have an outstanding reputation for litigation work. In particular, René Raggers is highly regarded for his technical support and pleadings in life sciences disputes. A competitor recommends him as “first choice in the Netherlands f...

JUVE Comment
The Amsterdam patent practice of this truly international IP boutique is one of the market leaders in the Netherlands. Its patent litigators have an outstanding reputation across Europe. Even though veteran Willem Hoyng is withdrawing more and more from active client work, two outstanding litigators have long since followed in his footsteps in Bart van den Broek and Simon Dack. And the firm does not seem to be running out of talent: behind the two lead partners there is a well-established squad of younger litigators, among themTheo Blomme and P...

JUVE Comment
In this mixed IP firm, patent attorneys make up the majority of fee earners. It is renowned throughout Europe for its prosecution work in electronics, transport, biotechnology, mechanics, process and mechanical engineering. Some patent attorneys, such as Martin Luten, also have an excellent reputation for providing technical support in infringement and revocation proceedings before the Dutch patent courts.

JUVE Comment
This IP boutique is one of the market leaders for patent disputes in the Netherlands. With partners such as Richard Ebbink and Mark Van Gardingen it has some of the most outstanding litigators on the lawyer side in its ranks. In addition, in Koen Bijvank the firm boasts one of the best-known litigators on the patent attorney side when it comes to biotech disputes and pharma litigation.

Full AnalysisPatentwerk ‘s-Hertogenbosch
JUVE Comment
With only eleven patent attorneys, Patentwerk is the smallest of the major Dutch patent attorney firms. It is known in the market for its patent filing work, but also has a renowned litigator in Bas Langenhuijsen. Dutch law firms often bring him in for disputes over chemical and especially mechanical patents. Patentwerk is less visible in big-ticket litigation for major industrial corporates; it is recommended rather for its work for SMEs and venture capital investors.
