How our patent attorneys can help
Both our UK and Munich based European Patent Attorneys will be able to obtain unitary patents at the European Patent Office, exactly as we do for European patents. We will also be able to prepare and file opt out requests.
We offer a free initial consultation to discuss your objectives and the approach that we would take to protecting the intellectual property in Europe. Or contact Kelda Style on 020 7831 7929 or email kelda.style@pagewhite.com.
