IP boutique offering Arnold Ruess Rechtsanwälte PartmbB is particularly active in the pharmaceutical sector, although it also serves high-profile clients from across the telecommunications, technology and semiconductor technology industries. In addition to domestic cases, the practice also excels in coordinating parallel proceedings within Europe and the US, and has already built up a strong reputation before the UPC during its first year of existence. Bernhard Arnold covers copyright matters in addition to patent law, while Arno Riße excels in matters pertaining to high-tech, pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Cordula Schumacher and Marina Wehler, who both have particular expertise in FRAND-related cases, complement the partner team. Tim Smentkowski made counsel in March 2024 and is well versed in patent law as well as trade marks.
