Boutique firm IPrime fields a team of leading patent attorneys and attorneys-at-law with extensive experience in dealing with complex national and cross-border intellectual property matters across a broad range of technologies.
Relying on a unique combination of experienced business lawyers and litigators, patent attorneys and technology experts, IPrime is able to offer high-end legal and strategic advice and advocacy services in connection with the protection and commercialization of innovations, investments into technology, as well as complex IP and commercial disputes. Key strengths of the team are its independence and close collaboration between Swiss and European patent attorneys with a profound understanding of technology and science (including AI, robotics, big data, cyberphysical systems and block chain, pharmaceuticals, life sciences, chemicals and biotechnology as well as medical technology), and highly experienced dispute resolution specialists, who routinely represent parties in legal proceedings before courts, authorities and arbitral tribunals. IPrime has for years regularly handled a relevant share of all patent litigation matters in front of the Swiss Federal Patent Court.
As a part-time judge at the Federal Patent Court and experienced patent litigator, Dr. Rudolf A. Rentsch is involved in many high-stake patent cases in various technology sectors, while Dr. Moritz Kälin, Thomas Kretschmer and Martin Willy bring a wealth of experience in their respective scientific fields as well as in all aspects of patent law. Dr. Rudolf A. Rentsch, Dr. Ronny D. Banchik, Dr. Raphael Zingg and Ernst J. Brem are experienced commercial lawyers, advising clients in contract negotiations and representing them particularly in IP disputes. This interdisciplinarity, as well as the many years of experience which its lawyers gained in other firms and in in-house roles in the technology sector, allows IPrime to provide cutting-edge legal and strategic support to domestic and international clients at the intersection of technology and law.
Other key differentiators are the boutique structure and the discretion and substantially reduced risk of conflicts of interest, thanks to which IPrime can provide a broad range of services in contentious matters, from counsel mandates in litigation and arbitration, over strategic advisory in IP matters to settlement facilitation in situations requiring not only legal knowledge but also a thorough understanding of the underlying technical and commercial issues.
IPrime’s IP department covers both patent prosecution and patent litigation cases at Swiss, European and international level, providing strategic and legal advice with respect to the protection of intellectual property, whether under patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret, design or unfair competition laws. In particular, IPrime frequently advises IP departments of large leading global high-tech companies as well as SMEs, universities and start-ups in all areas of IP. IPrime also offers comprehensive services for the registration and administration of patent and trademark portfolios throughout Europe and overseas. In addition, IPrime’s patent attorneys and lawyers regularly assist clients in complex IP disputes, particularly in the patent area, and have accompanied a number of companies in patent cases in the U.S., China, Japan as well as many countries within Europe, in particular Germany and England. IPrime also routinely advises on the commercialization of intellectual property and related financing and structuring considerations and has set up a partnership with a large Swiss tax and accounting firm to assist companies in the tax-optimal structuring of patent portfolios, in accordance with the so-called patent boxes into Swiss law. Since many years, IPrime also runs a China desk and has strong connections to Japan.
IPrime has offices each in the heart of the cities of Zurich and Dusseldorf and since summer 2021 in Liechtenstein.
