Intellectual Property, Media, and Technology
For over 15 years, Dr. Frederick Ch'en has combined his scientific training and cultural background to advise on a broad range of contentious and non-contentious IP matters, especially in the life sciences area. His particular focus is multijurisdictional patent litigation, which also allows him to assist more pragmatically on IP licensing and IP aspects of transactions (e.g., M&A, private equity, and corporate finance).
A former research scientist at Oxford University (with the top First Class Honours degree in Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry (Balliol College) and a doctorate in Medical Sciences (Merton College)), Frederick brings technical insight into clients' disputes or transactions coupled with cross-border perspectives that stem from having been raised in four different cultures.
Frederick is a solicitor (England & Wales), U.S. attorney (California), U.S. patent attorney, a registered foreign attorney in Japan, and a U.K. chartered biologist. He has been recognised as a leading practitioner by various publications, including Chambers Asia, Legal 500, and MIP.
