Firm Overview

The law firm Anwälte Burger und Partner (ABP) was founded by Managing Partner Dr. Hannes Burger in 2008. Founding the law firm was part of the natural evolvement of ABP, as it meant expanding the service range starting out from the basis, the – still existing – first ABP company ABP PATENT NETWORK as a software, search and renewals service provider, to a full-service IP boutique and law firm. Every aspect of ABP is specialized in and focused on the field of Intellectual Property.

Practice Areas and Offices

Offices are located in Windischgarsten (Austria | Anwälte Burger und Partner Rechtsanwalt GmbH), Vienna (Austria | Anwälte Burger und Partner Rechtsanwalt GmbH), Munich (Germany | ABP BurgerRechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH), Zurich (Switzerland | ABP PATENT NETWORK AG). It is worth emphasizing that this constellation of the ABP offices is unique in Austria. There is no other IP law firm in Austria that can demonstrate such structure. Furthermore, the Munich office enables ABP to more directly interact with the European Patent Office so as to handle the clients' issues personally and faster.


A total of more than 40 experts (attorneys-at-law, lawyers, technical engineers, researchers and paralegals) work exclusively for Anwälte Burger und Partner in the field of IP and are active for national and international clients on national and international markets. Up to 100 specialists are part of the ABP universe. ABP stands for a motivated, synchronized team communicating by means of state-of-the-art media, embracing innovation and modern technology in delivering client services. ABP uses specific software systems and web applications to handle the daily business and provide a high-level standard in its services.

The client base of Anwälte Burger und Partner GmbH is a longstanding and strong one, with very interesting and large prosecution projects.
