Law firms ranked by client reviews
European Patents cover protection obtained through the European Patent Convention, allowing a single application to secure for multiple countries via the European Patent Office. A solicitor helps clients prepare and file European patent applications, navigate claims and amendments, and manage national validation in designated states. They advise on oppositions, revocation actions, and enforcement strategies, including potentially pursuing or defending infringement actions in courts and coordinating with national offices. The process hinges on procedures before the EPO and subsequent national phases.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
A European patent involves multi-jurisdictional prosecution, claim amendments, and the need to validate in several states. The solicitor handles drafting and refining claims, filing, responding to EPO communications, and coordinating national validations. They also advise on oppositions and potential litigation paths, from enforcement actions to defenses in designated jurisdictions, and manage deadlines across multiple fora.
