Abolition of the EPO’s “10 Day Rule”

Our UP/UPC services

We can assist with obtaining Unitary Patents at the EPO. We also offer a full range of services before the UPC, including filing opt-outs for classical European patents from the jurisdiction of the UPC (as well as opt-ins), and UPC litigation services. When dealing with patent enforcement litigation, we already usually cooperate with litigators to build specialist litigation teams for the jurisdiction in question. We are proceeding on the same basis for UPC infringement matters also. However, for UPC revocation actions we intend to handle such matters ourselves in the same way as for EPO oppositions (unless the matter is sufficiently complex that a specialist team is required).

Celebrating diversity: IP Inclusive

Fiercely committed to diversity, equity and inclusion, we were one of the first signatories of the IP Inclusive Charter, making a public commitment to supporting and promoting DEI in the IP professions. Additionally, we were founding members of IP Out, our LGBT+ chapter, and we regularly host events for Senior Women in IP and on neurodiversity, sustainability, and more.
