Enforcement

Allens Arthur Robinson's Intellectual Property team has patent litigators with a wealth of experience in enforcing patent rights.

Patent litigation

As an integrated intellectual property firm, our breadth of experience and our commitment to excellence in all we do ensures technically precise, timely and commercially effective results.

Many of our Intellectual Property litigators hold science as well as legal degrees, and we can draw on these qualifications and their experience across various fields, including:

  • biotechnology
  • chemistry
  • ecommerce
  • engineering
  • medicine
  • metallurgy
  • microbiology
  • physics
  • programming

Our patent litigators work closely with our patent attorneys to address the technical issues in any patent case. We are particularly experienced in multinational litigation strategies, and have a wealth of knowledge on the critical issue of retaining independent experts and counsel.

Our patent enforcement team has an impressive track record for clients across a range of industry sectors, including:

  • biotechnology
  • explosives
  • medical
  • new technologies
  • pharmaceuticals

We have successfully acted for clients in major litigation relating to patent issues, such as:

  • extensions of term
  • infringement
  • opposition
  • reexamination
  • revocation
