Global IP Prosecution
As your comprehensive solution for global IP prosecution, our firm unites expert attorneys and a trusted international network to deliver high-quality, cost-effective protection for your rights worldwide.
We protect: innovation
Our attorneys provide a wide range of patent prosecution services and are experienced in dealing with objections on the grounds of lack of novelty and inventive step (obviousness), as well as issues relating to a lack of clarity or sufficiency, and added subject-matter. In addition, we advise on more technology-specific issues relating to computer-implemented inventions (CII), excluded subject-matter, business methods, methods of treatment by surgery or therapy, and methods of diagnosis.
As well as being highly knowledgeable in argument and amendment strategies for responding to examination reports, we also regularly represent clients in oral proceedings before the EPO’s Examining Divisions.
Prosecution representation, globally
Here at Murgitroyd we have a wide geographical spread of experience and are able to directly represent clients before the European Patent Office, as well as at national patent offices in the UK, Ireland, Germany, France, Italy, Norway and Finland. We also have an extensive international network of vetted partner firms that enable us to manage the worldwide prosecution of your patent portfolio who have the same commitment to adding value to your business as we do.
