I am a British and European patent attorney in our Intellectual Property group in London. I am involved with UK patent infringement actions relating to standard essential patents (SEPs), FRAND setting litigation and globally coordinated litigation, as well as SEP essentiality reviews and valuation. I am also authorised to represent clients before the Unified Patent Court (UPC) that opened in Europe in June 2023.

Today, the European Commission has proposed new Regulations in relation to Standard Essential Patents, Compulsory Licenses, and Supplementary Protection Certificates.
