Career

Dr. Christof Augenstein is founding partner of Kather Augenstein and has more than 20 years of experience as a litigator in the litigation of intellectual property rights such as patents, trademarks and designs.

The focus of his work is on extensive, technically complex and often cross-border patent infringement proceedings. These can be, but do not have to be, the biggest in the industry. He advise start-ups, scale-ups, medium-sized companies, hidden champions as well as Dax 40 corporations and international conglomerates. His clients come from a wide variety of technical sectors – such as telecommunications, chemicals, automotive, biotechnology and pharmaceuticals.

He enjoy familiarising himself with new technical issues, penetrating them in order to develop a convincing argumentation for the respective case on this basis. This requires not only inquisitiveness and tenacity, but also a dash of creativity in order to use procedural opportunities and legal situations to the client’s advantage. It is precisely then that one manages to break down even complex matters in such a way that they are easy to understand. He therefore see his task in particular as a link between researchers on the one hand and judges on the other.

Patent infringement proceedings on standard-essential patents are another focus of his work. He count leading telecommunications companies worldwide among his clients and has been at the forefront of SEP litigation for more than 15 years.
