German and European Patent Attorney, UPC Representative, Counsel

»Every single patent case is unique and requires creativity. I enjoy helping you tackle your patent challenges, thinking through and arguing your case.«

Dr. Humphrey Morhenn practices as a patent attorney on broad fields of mechanics, robotics, telecommunications, telecommunications engineering, think-film deposition technology, and physics. Due to his academic background, he has profound knowledge in the areas of semiconductor physics, photovoltaics, polymer physics, electron microscopy as well as x-ray and neutron technology. He contributes this knowledge to the prosecution and enforcement of patents as a member of our expert team.

A focus of his work is on patent infringement proceedings, especially regarding telecommunications (mobile communications, xDSL), cross-border proceedings included. In this context, he substantially handles the validity proceedings conducted in parallel, including nullity and nullity appeal proceedings before the German Federal Court of Justice. He benefits from this litigation experience when drafting and prosecuting patent applications, allowing him to obtain strong and valuable IP rights for our clients.
