Infringement cases

When you are the holder of a patent, you are the sole party entitled to sell, apply, or advertise the invention.

Only when you grant a license to a third party is that party permitted to use your invention. Any unauthorized use by another party constitutes an infringement of your patent rights.

Judicial proceedings

Novopatent B.V. can provide you with comprehensive advice and assistance if you discover that your patent is being infringed.

Conversely, if you are accused of infringement, our patent attorney can advise you regarding the validity of the patent in question and assist you during any potential legal proceedings.

Amicable consultation

When you see a competitor copying your protected product, the temptation to head straight to court can be strong. Experience shows, however, that this consumes a great deal of energy, time, and money. For this reason, we almost always advise attempting to avoid legal proceedings in the first instance and resolving the matter through amicable consultation. Naturally, we can provide you with support and advice in this process.

A cup of tea often achieves more than a formal letter.
