The process of Brexit will take many years, and the implications for our clients’ business will unfold over time. Our MoFo Brexit Task Force is coordinating Brexit-related legal analysis across all of our offices, and working with clients on key concerns and issues, now and in the coming weeks and months. We will also continue to provide MoFo Brexit Briefings on a range of key issues. We are here to support you in any and every way that we can.

From a patent prosecution and patent litigation perspective, Brexit will not have an effect on the existing avenues for filing and prosecuting patent applications in Europe, but will affect the up-coming Unitary Patents and the Unified Patent Court system.
