He represents clients in examination and opposition proceedings before the German Patent and Trade Mark Office and the European Patent Office, as well as in appeal proceedings before the Boards of Appeal of the European Patent Office. His work also includes drafting patent applications, conducting freedom-to-operate and validity analyses, and handling patent litigation matters.
