Gulde & Partner, Intellectual Property | Chambers Germany Profile

About

Provided by Gulde & Partner

GULDE & PARTNER advises on all aspects of intellectual property matters induding patents, trademark, designs, unfair competition, licensing, know-how, copyrights and trade secrets. Acting on behalf of domestic and foreign clients, the professional services cover not only the prosecution of all kinds of IP rights, including their elaboration and registration, but also in litigation, ie. in their enforcement against infringements and their defence.

Especially the litigation group of the firm expanded in recent years considerably. For instance, GULDE & PARTNER participated in a number of infringement and invalidity suits in the telecommunication field.
Other key areas of the firm's activity are the provision of expert opinions as part of a protective right evaluation, due diligence and the analysis of third-party rights, the drafting of license agreements and the handling of copyright and competition law cases. Our team gained extensive knowledge in handling FRAND cases and currently takes a lead role in a groundbreaking FRAND defense law suit in Germany after the FRAND decision of the ECJ.

With more than 30 IP lawyers and more than 60 IP staff; GULDE & PARTNER is large enough to cover all fields of intellectual property protection but small enough to give individual and careful attention to every case. The firm combines the professional know-how of experienced patent attorneys with the expertise of specialised attorneys-at-law and highly qualified technical consultants.
