Haseltine Lake Kempner LLP

Haseltine Lake Kempner LLP is highly skilled in assisting clients across their entire patent lifecycle. This offering encompasses advice on strategy, identification, and exploitation, as well as protection and the enforcement of rights. Representation in oppositions and appeals before the EPO, as well as in litigation, are key areas of strength, and the group is also increasingly active in representation before the UPC. In London, Frances Wilding heads up the technology practice, while Bristol-based Alex Rogers spearheads the firm’s chemistry and life sciences department. James Ward, who divides his time between London and Munich, specialises in EPO opposition and appeal proceedings, and he acts for both opponents and patentees. Joseph Lenthall, another notable name, focuses on the pharmaceutical, FMCG, and materials chemistry industries.
