Corporate clients

Looking for relief? Granted.

No one knows your line of business like you do. Optimization of your portfolio and evaluation of protectable assets rest in the safe hands of your patent department. However, its resources are limited. As outside counsel, I will make sure to relieve your staff from an ever-growing drafting and prosecution burden, keeping them free for strategic tasks. This includes working hand in hand with your in-house attorneys, patent administrators, and inventors. Ask manufacturers like Bosch and Porsche or financial heavyweights like Cantor Fitzgerald and BGC Partners.

Your technologies evolve faster than the legal framework designed to protect them? As computer-implemented inventions (CII) come into play, some law firms may throw the towel. That’s where I feel right at home.

Medium-sized businesses

You form the backbone of economy. Jointly, we’ll add some muscle.

The Ukraine war and its aftermath keep taking their toll on the SMB sector. Having weathered the downturn and market consolidation, you need to position yourself for future growth. Whether you’re a crafts enterprise or automotive supplier: Innovation, branding, and creative capital constitute the key differentiators in this competitive environment.

Let me help you build a strategic intellectual property portfolio, train your personnel, or institute policies for proper handling of employee invention matters. Both traditional producers like Moroccan Natural and established hi‑techs like FORCAM value such all-out approach to legal counseling.

Where your activities reach beyond Europe, I will gladly resort to an international network of communicating attorneys. Think big, scale fast!

Creatives and sole inventors

Never fly alone.

You understand that legal protection is sine qua non to any exploitation of your invention. Still, you want to grasp the options at hand and remain in control of the course of action.

Once an objective has been set, I can take on the task of elucidating the legal context in layman terms and support your decision making. Always in light of the ultimate goal: putting your intellectual property to profitable use.

Thinking about turning an idea into a business? Generous government funding for legal services and consultancy throughout the bootstrapping phase is at your disposal—don’t fret to ask. When it comes to raising venture capital, staffing, or incorporation, we may bring in specialized partners at your option. As your wingman, I’ll be right alongside you on this mission. Prosperous clients such as CoachHub, Knowunity, and virtualQ tell their own tale.

Okay, so you’re more of the artsy type. Fear not, I’ve still got you covered: Counseling gifted designers like Vanessa Azevedo and world-renowned creatives like Peter Schilling (“Major Tom®”) has been my pride and joy since day one.
