In my 20 years as a patent litigator, I have been representing clients from all industry sectors in internationalpatent disputes. With a particular focus on life sciences clients, I have been in volved in numerous landmarkpatent cases and important innovator vs. innovator disputes.
Advising our national and international clients from a variety of sectors in patent law, my practice focuses on patent infringement and damages proceedings, nullity actions and compulsory license cases before the Germancourts as well as opposition proceedings before the European Patent Office and UPC advice.
With my significant litigation expertise, I have been able to win numerous landmark preliminary injunction proceedings for our clients, particularly in the pharmaceutical and medical devices field.
My practice covers the coordination of large cases across jurisdictions and practices with a broad international network of counsel, patent attorneys and experts in the technical, economic and legal fields.
My advice includes the development of offensive as well as defense patent strategies for clients from all industry sectors.
My clients appreciate my responsiveness, economic understanding and reliability as well as my dedication to winning their case. For me, success is a team effort: My "one team approach" includes not only my highly qualified team here in my office, but also each and every one who works on the case globally, whether it is a lawyer, patent attorney or assistant from our Bird & Bird network or from a competitor. Most importantly, the client with his expertise is the centre of it. We focus on using all our energy to win the case together as one team.
