European and ROW Co-ordination

We frequently advise clients on matters that cross European borders with significant international components. With our integrated offering of litigators and patent attorneys, we take a strategic approach to protecting our clients’ entire portfolio in the UK, across Europe and beyond.

Our unique, integrated offering of patent attorneys and litigators, allows us to work seamlessly with established EPO strategies providing our clients with a team adept at handling experts and evidence.

We are experts in complex cases involving parallel proceedings across multiple jurisdictions. Our integrated offering means we can use the same team to coordinate national actions across Europe, while also handling parallel disputes in the EPO, UPC and UK courts.

We have long established relationships with the most reputable IP firms and advisers in Europe. Being independent means that we can select the firms that best support the commercial objectives of our clients. We work seamlessly with these firms, acting as a single point of contact to ensure consistent high quality service that our clients can rely on.

‘‘C&R’s strength is its fusion of a solicitors’ practice with a patent attorneys’ practice, meaning that it can provide a one-stop shop for prosecution and litigation of patents.” Legal 500 2024
