We attach particular importance to long-term relationships and customized intellectual property solutions, which we develop together with you as a team in order to meet your individual goals, needs and opportunities.

thus combines the advantages of
EXPERTISE
in-depth industrial and technical experience, many years of patent attorney practice and presence in the legal market, and a team that has largely worked together for years
INNOVATIVE STRENGTH
with the spirit of optimism, the openness to change, new tools and approaches, the wealth of ideas and, last but not least, the great drive of a young company.
The whole is more than the sum of its parts
HOLISTIC APPROACH
The patent attorney profession is often described as fulfilling an interface function between the two fields of TECHNOLOGY on the one hand and LAW on the other. Our approach, which is strongly influenced by our practical experience in both industry and the patent attorney profession, complements this basic concept in a decisive way.

It is based on the synergetic combination of 3 + 1 areas:
For us, TECHNOLOGY and LAW are inseparable from the field of BUSINESS, i.e. the entrepreneurial/business side, as well as – at least in interaction with third parties – the field of NEGOTIATION, the latter especially in relation to opposing parties and contractual partners (e.g., in the case of licenses, cooperations, M&A, judicial and extrajudicial settlements, etc.). In many cases, successful intellectual property solutions can only be achieved through the active synergetic integration of measures and knowledge in these other areas.

Our values
TRUSTING PARTNERSHIP
We are aware that successful partnerships are strongly based on mutual respect for fundamental values, which therefore form central guidelines for our actions.
COMPETENCE
We strive to always provide you with our services on the basis of a high level of professional expertise, which we therefore actively develop on an ongoing basis and adapt to your specific needs, for example with regard to specific technical knowledge or legal requirements. This also means that we mainly work in sectors that we know very well from our own experience or in which we familiarize ourselves intensively.
INNOVATIVE STRENGTH
Your intellectual property (IP) is largely based on the innovative strength of your company. However, we see our task not only in effectively protecting your IP, but also in further strengthening your position in the market through our own innovative strength. This applies in particular to our contributions to the further development of initial invention ideas into valuable patent applications, the development of suitable IP strategies and – last but not least – the continuous improvement of our own internal processes and tools in order to be able to support you even more effectively and efficiently.
HIGH SERVICE ORIENTATION
It is also clear to us that a high level of customer satisfaction is not based solely on good work results such as written pleadings, intellectual property right applications or draft contracts, but that a high quality of service is equally important.
INTEGRITY AND RELIABILITY
We are aware that true partnerships are based on integrity and reliability. That is why we always strive to be a long-term partner who earns your trust through honesty, transparency, reliability and dedication.
