Patents and utility models are of central importance for safeguarding technical inventions. With the option to apply for a patent or register a utility model, you can secure your technical developments against unwanted imitation for up to 20 years.

Your ideas can be protected through patents, be it a German or European patent. The ability to patent technical innovations allows you to protect even minor advancements compared to the prior art. It’s not necessary to “reinvent the wheel” each time.

Here, it’s essential to comprehend and abstract complex technical relationships in their entirety to formulate a protection claim that is both precise and as broadly defined as possible. Our goal is to ensure the optimal protection for every invention.

1. Initial application with the German Patent and Trademark Office to obtain an initial assessment of the protectability of the subject matter.
2. Within the priority year: Submission of a European patent application or an international (PCT) patent application if the assessment from the German Patent and Trademark Office is positive.
3. We handle the coordination of all grant procedures, also in non-European countries, in close collaboration with local partner law firms. Through this step-by-step approach, we ensure that your inventions are optimally protected and the necessary steps to expand protection in an international context are conducted efficiently and cost-optimized.

Through this step-by-step approach, we ensure that your inventions are optimally protected, and the necessary measures to expand this protection in an international context are carried out efficiently and cost-effectively.
