Patents

We bring together top-tier patent attorneys and IP litigators under one roof.

Based on a thorough understanding of your technical field and business objectives, we use our expertise to develop the right patenting strategy for you. We will prepare new patent applications and prosecute them to grant in a way that maximises your competitive edge, both at home and overseas.

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 our ability to secure high quality patents for our clients, we have patent attorneys qualified to represent you in post-grant proceedings before Europe’s Unified Patent Court.

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. We can support you with:

  • Revocation of patents
  • Infringement cases involving declarations and injunctions
  • The application of prior use defences
  • Research exemptions
  • Patent licensing
  • Invention ownership
  • Joint development agreements
  • Employment contracts
