Patent Law & Litigation

Our specialist patent litigators are practised at devising winning litigation strategies both on a multi-jurisdictional and on a national basis. Many of us have technical backgrounds and industry experience and can advise with confidence in cases involving the most complex technology. On the transactional side we are well versed in the specific legal and practical issues arising in relation to the commercialisation of technology rights in the different jurisdictions and across borders, including for example, in relation to collaboration agreements, licensing, in depth patent due diligence and technology backed financings. With the current increasing focus of European regulators on the patents field, our patent team is complemented by our leading anti-trust team, a number of whom have considerable experience of patent specific matters.
