»A groundbreaking innovation does not necessarily have to relate to – or even focus on – a technical innovation. I am proud to lead a team that helps our clients protect the appearance of their products as well.«
Dr. Philipe Kutschke’s practice encompasses all litigious and non-litigious matters relating to trademark, design, copyright, and competition law, as well as the protection of business secrets.
In addition to offering strategic advice on the development and management of, and applications relating to, transnational IP portfolios, Dr. Kutschke’s work also focuses on overall consulting and representation in both court proceedings and out-of-court proceedings relating to the enforcement of IP rights in both a national and international context, as well as (parallel) protest procedures and nullity and cancellation proceedings before the German Patent and Trademark Office and the EUIPO.
Dr. Kutschke advises and represents start-ups, medium-sized companies, and international corporations alike. With many years of cross-sector experience, he is able to efficiently offer a sensible economic solution to even the most complex international litigation. He frequently provides advice and support throughout the innovation process – from the initial concept through to market launch and subsequently thereto.
