A changing landscape: German courts in the maelstrom of the UPC

For decades, the German national courts, in particular Düsseldorf, Munich and Mannheim, have been the go-to places for patent disputes in Europe. The introduction of the Unified Patent Court (UPC), to whose one-year anniversary The Patent Lawyer magazine is dedicating a special issue, has opened up new options for patent proprietors who plan to litigate.
