Freedom-To-Operate Analyses

Are you allowed to use a specific aspect of a technology or might you thereby possibly infringe upon active protective rights of competitors? FTO analyses can shed light on this question. This process allows us to determine the valid protective rights of third parties and whether they are even relevant and on the same time also enforceable. We can also assist you in developing acceptable workarounds if necessary.

Meaningful FTO analyses always come down to – often extensive – research. Our function is determining the relevance of the respective property right from the wealth of information gathered. The substantial experience and broad technical background embodied in our team enables a direct and reliable view of the essentials. So that you can readily grasp the big picture.
