OPT-OUT FROM THE UNITARY PATENT COURT

The future European patent system gives rights holders the option of renouncing the benefit of the future unified patent jurisdiction (so-called “opt-out” procedure). The decision to be taken involves many aspects, including the filing and possible grant dates of your European patent, its geographical coverage, the past or plausible involvement of your patent in litigation before a national court , possible opposition, the possibility and desire to require unitary effect, particular interests in the United Kingdom, Spain, Poland or Croatia…. We help you make a strategic decision on this subject in relation to your business.
