Dentons boasts a team of attorneys and solicitors that expertly handle UK litigation, large-scale IP portfolio purchases, portfolio management, and prosecution proceedings. The firm has an international network of offices, thus providing clients with seamless cross-border expertise. Sectors of note for the group include retail, technology, energy, media, and finance, as well as space, AI, and quantum. Justin Hill sits at the helm of the firm’s European patent practice with a specialism in opposition and appeals work. Marie Jansson Heeks is also a key name in contentious mandates, and Alexander Rees focuses on drafting, filing, and prosecuting patent applications. The team grew in 2023, with the addition of three new patent attorneys.
