„Franck Klein also offers up his expertise on this mandate and earns praise from another satisfied patron for being “extremely skilled, open minded and collaborative. He takes the time to discuss matters in person, which speeds up the process and brings in better results thanks to the exchange of information and brainstorming that happens during such conversations. Franck is also proficient in all three official languages of the EPO, so he grasps the nuances of language used in patent applications and can propose new arguments in opposition proceedings on this basis.“

„Further strengthening the set, Markus Kreuzberg thrives when working with domestic companies seeking protection across the globe. He adroitly oversees the drafting and filing of international patent applications for companies including Conradi+Kaiser, a family-owned business that has established itself as a leader in rubber moulded parts.“

– IAM Patent 1000 Guide 2024

- The Legal 500 – Germany

„Four partners and several staff work proactively to provide a complete service ranging from providing non-infringement or infringement arguments, successfully fighting for or against the validity of patents, knowing about and finding necessary evidence, suggesting workarounds to problems, and usually winning cases or suggesting useful solutions.“

- The Legal 500 – Germany

„Service-oriented patent attorneys who go above and beyond for their clients. The attorneys exhibit the knowledge level of top technical specialists and, through this, light can be shed on weak arguments of the opposite party.“

- IAM Patent 1000 Guide 2022

„The patent attorneys are all highly experienced and drive their work while being practical and efficient.“

- Chambers 2021

„The team is detail oriented, sensible and shows great judgement.“
