In terms of the number of EPO patent applications, BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT is one of the four leading law firms in Germany and ranks eighth in Europe. German and British law firms hold a dominant position in Europe.<\/h2>\n

According to IP pilot’s latest report on the number of patent applications filed by major European law firms at the European Patent Office (EPO) in the period 2022 to 2024, BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT ranks eighth and is therefore one of the top 10 law firms in Europe.<\/p>\n

According to IP pilot’s research, law firms from Germany (46 percent) and the United Kingdom (44 percent) dominate the ranking of the most important representatives for EPO patent applications. In addition to BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT, Hoffmann Eitle, Gr\u00fcnecker and Vossius & Partner are among the leading law firms in Germany. According to IP pilot, these firms maintain their strong position in European patent applications, which reflects their expertise and deep-rooted presence in the market.<\/p>\n

The dominance of German and British law firms, IP pilot concludes, will continue and underlines the central role of these firms in the European patent system. They will continue to be at the forefront, providing important services to companies and innovators seeking to protect their intellectual property in Europe.<\/p>\n
