Engineering & Physics

We have been helping clients to obtain patent protection in the fields of engineering and physics for many years and continue to excel in this area.

The more competitive an industry becomes, the more hard-fought are the battles over each incremental improvement. As a result, we are often called upon to monitor competitors’ patent portfolios, identify potential strengths and weaknesses, give opinions on freedom to operate and pursue those who are infringing our clients’ intellectual property rights.

Patent offices are issuing patents in the engineering field at a higher rate than ever, and are receptive to arguments that improvements, even those which on their face may look small, are worthy of patent protection.

We continue to be excited and surprised at the leaps and bounds our clients are making in pushing forward the bounds of engineering and manufacturing innovation.

Many of our team members have a background in either physics or engineering and advise clients across a wide range of engineering specialities, including:

  • Agricultural 
  • Aerospace and aviation
  • Automotive engineering
  • Acoustic engineering
  • Construction 
  • Power 
  • Mining 
  • Fluid mechanics
  • Production line processes and products
  • Packaging
  • Robotics
  • Mechatronics 
  • Microelectromechanical systems
  • Marine and offshore
  • Biomedical and surgical devices
  • Domestic appliances and household goods
