The interplay between patent prosecution and patent litigation

IP Experts LIVE: Webinar for IP Professionals

IP Experts LIVE is a webinar series by BARDEHLE PAGENBERG (see our program PDF).

Our experts will provide you with insights on selected aspects of German and European IP law with a focus on practical and strategic guidance. At the end of each seminar, there will be a Q & A session.

What is it about?

When litigating patents, practitioners often experience that patent prosecution is rarely done with later litigation in mind. This can provide challenges - as well as opportunities - when enforcing patents. In this webinar, our patent litigators Johannes Heselberger and Dr. Jan Bösing will discuss the interplay between patent prosecution and litigation, including the following aspects:

  • How should patent claims and the patent specification be drafted to facilitate later enforcement?
  • When are embodiments part of the invention, when are they "disclaimed"?
  • Which statements help/hurt arguments for infringement under the doctrine of equivalents?
  • To what extent can statements during prosecution be considered during litigation (file wrapper estoppel)?

For answers to these questions and more tips and tricks for patent prosecution and litigation, please register for this webinar.
