Opposition

Our team of patent attorneys has an exceptional track record in oppositions and opposition-appeals before the European Patent Office. Whether you are the opponent or the patent proprietor, you can benefit from our team’s technical understanding, legal knowledge, and experience, to ensure the best possible outcome of the proceedings.

As opposition proceedings, and in particular opposition-appeal proceedings, increasingly focus on legal issues rather than just the technical issues, your case deserves a team of attorneys with legal qualifications on a par with those of the legally qualified members of the opposition division or the board of appeal. And when it comes to the merits of the case, we will be ready with the necessary technical facts, evidence, and arguments to defend your case.

If you’re the opponent, we will make sure to keep you informed about the availability of similar procedures in other jurisdictions and fora, to allow you to attack the proprietor’s patent family on different fronts.
