Max von Rospatt works mainly as a trial lawyer in the field of patent and utility model law. Based on a large number of cases of international importance, he has an excellent knowledge of national and international patent law. He works regularly in integrated teams with patent law experts from various countries.

He has vast experience in practically all technical fields including those which have traditionally been important in patent law, namely mechanics, electronics and mechanical engineering. However, he is also particularly strong in the fields of pharmaceuticals, biologics, genetic engineering, chemistry and fine chemicals, digital entertainment electronics and medical engineering.

Max has represented clients in all major German patent courts including the first instance and second instance infringement courts, as well as the Federal Patent Court and the Supreme Court in nullity cases. He also is experienced in Oppositions and Appeals at the European Patent office and the German Patent Office.

Among his clients are internationally renowned pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, diversified industrial corporations, consumer products companies, automotive industry suppliers and manufacturers of electronic components.

He speaks regularly at national and international events on German patent law.
