Representation of the UP and the EP before the UPC
One of the upcoming UP services – representation. We can represent your UP or EP before the UPC. In this case, the representation of the interested party in the UPC may take place in different divisions of the UPC.
According to the ‘UPC Agreement,’ only a solicitor or a patent lawyer from a ‘UPC Contracting State’ may represent the defendant in the UPC (court). It means that an individual claimant (the patent holder or any interested party) must employ a professional representative to defend their rights in cases where the individual acts as the plaintiff or defendant.
