Four practice areas. One unwavering focus.
Our work spans patent litigation and prosecution, brand protection, life sciences regulatory matters, licensing and IP-driven transactions. We are particularly strong in complex disputes and matters that require coordination across jurisdictions.
Patent Litigation
Complex patent disputes require more than legal argument.
Patent litigation is at the core of our practice. We represent patent owners and challengers in high-stakes disputes before Polish courts, the Polish Patent Office and European Patent Office.
Our work covers infringement disputes, preliminary injunctions, patent invalidity proceedings, evidence and expert issues, and the coordination of parallel proceedings across multiple jurisdictions. We also advise before proceedings begin - assessing litigation risk, developing enforcement or defence strategies and preparing clients for disputes arising around market entry or product launch.
Our lawyers and patent attorneys work as one team from the outset. We combine litigation experience with technical expertise, allowing us to engage directly with the patent, the underlying technology and the technical arguments on which the case may ultimately turn.
We have particular strength in pharmaceutical patent litigation. These disputes are rarely about patent law alone: they may involve complex scientific evidence, procedural issues, regulatory and reimbursement developments, commercial strategy and parallel proceedings in several jurisdictions - often under time pressure. Our experience in this area allows us to assemble the right team across those disciplines and address the dispute as a whole, rather than as a series of separate legal questions.
Pharma & Life Sciences IP
IP strategy cannot be separated from the business and regulatory environment.
Pharmaceuticals and life sciences are our major focus. We advise pharmaceutical, chemical and medical-device companies on intellectual property, regulatory and commercial issues throughout the lifecycle of their products and technologies.
A product launch decision may simultaneously involve patent exposure, regulatory requirements, reimbursement considerations and contractual arrangements. What distinguishes this practice is the ability to look at these questions together rather than in separate legal silos. We help clients understand how those pieces interact and develop a strategy around the commercial objective.
Our work ranges from patent and market-entry strategy to regulatory questions, licensing, technology transfer, commercial agreements and IP-driven transactions.
We assist clients with the assessment of launch strategies, product and indication carve-outs, regulatory exclusivities, anti-trust issues, reimbursement considerations and many other issues arising at the intersection of IP and market regulation.
We also advise on the agreements through which technologies and products reach the market, including licences, technology-transfer arrangements, development and collaboration agreements, manufacturing and supply arrangements and other IP-intensive commercial contracts.
Trademark, Design & Copyright
Protecting brands and product identity means protecting the market position they create.
We advise clients on the protection, enforcement and defence of trademarks, designs and copyright, with particular strength in complex contentious matters.
Trademark and design disputes are a core part of our practice. We act in infringement and unfair competition disputes involving well-known and reputed trademarks, distinctive product designs and other valuable elements of brand identity. Our experience also extends to precedent-setting cases, including three-dimensional trademarks and colour marks, where questions of distinctiveness, scope of protection and market perception often require a particularly careful legal and evidential strategy.
We also represent clients in oppositions, invalidity and cancellation actions before the Polish Patent Office and EUIPO.
Many of these disputes go beyond the registered right itself, and we regularly combine our claims with unfair competition arguments, particularly in cases involving product appearance, packaging, branding, imitation and other forms of market conduct.
Alongside contentious work, we advise on clearance, filing and portfolio strategy. We approach registration with enforcement in mind: how a right will support the client’s business, how robust it will be if challenged and how effectively it can be used against competitors.
Our focus is not simply on obtaining rights, but on building and defending IP positions that have real commercial value.
Patent Prosecution
Patents should be built to withstand scrutiny.
Our patent attorneys advise clients across the full patent lifecycle - from the initial assessment of an invention and drafting strategy through prosecution, grant, portfolio development and enforcement planning.
We prepare and prosecute patent applications before the Polish Patent Office and the European Patent Office, and manage international filings through the PCT system administered by WIPO.
We also handle European patent validations in Poland, supplementary protection certificate proceedings and other matters relating to the establishment, maintenance and extension of patent rights.
We conduct freedom-to-operate analyses, patent landscape reviews and validity assessments, helping clients understand the patent environment around new products, technologies and market-entry plans. Where protection is required across multiple markets, we develop filing strategies and coordinate prosecution through trusted patent counsel worldwide, providing clients with a single strategic point of contact.
Our prosecution practice is closely connected with our disputes work. The patent attorneys responsible for drafting and prosecution work alongside lawyers who regularly test patent claims in infringement and invalidity proceedings. This means we consider not only whether protection can be obtained, but how the patent may later be construed, challenged, designed around and enforced.
We have particular experience in technically demanding fields, including pharmaceuticals, chemistry and life sciences, where strong patent protection requires scientific understanding, precise drafting and a clear view of the commercial and competitive landscape.
