## Legal advice for biotechnology & chemistry

Competent support for legal challenges and scientific progress

The biotechnology and chemistry sectors are two of the most research-intensive and innovative technological disciplines of our time, with a growing importance in industry and medicine. Both industries are central to societal challenges such as climate protection and sustainable resource use and require effective and thorough patent protection.

Our team of experts at MTR Legal can advise you on these challenging industries and help you securely protect your innovations. We draft German and European patent applications, represent clients before the German and European Patent Offices, and coordinate grant proceedings worldwide.

Another focus of our work is the representation of our clients in opposition proceedings as well as in national nullity proceedings before the German Federal Patent Court. Furthermore, we provide legal opinions regarding patent validity, patent infringement and freedom-to-operate.

In addition, our lawyers advise start-ups on the preparation of business plans and support clients in technology scouting and innovation management. In the enforcement of patents, we work closely with our lawyers, who have extensive experience in patent infringement litigation and extensive knowledge of the specific case law in the fields of biotechnology and chemistry.
