Patents

Anne Ryan & Co prepare, file and prosecute patent applications and act before the Irish Patents Office, the European Patent Office (EPO) and under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT).

We offer a full range of patent services, from initial consultation and prior art searching to drafting and prosecution of patent applications to grant. We also monitor and attend to the payment of maintenance fees.

We act directly before

    • the Irish Patents Office
    • the European Patent Office
    • the UK Intellectual Property Office
    • WIPO (the World Intellectual Property Organisation).

We have also built a network of trusted patent attorneys in other jurisdictions around the world, so that we can assist our clients to obtain reliable and cost effective protection in any region of interest.

We also handle Supplementary Protection Certificates, which provide additional protection for medicinal and plant protection products which are covered by a basic patent.
