Description

The webinar is only for epi Members and epi Students.

Knowledge of how to handle potential conflicts of interest is essential to the work of any European Patent Attorney; yet there are few statutory or case law sources that assist to imbue a robust and rational approach. Rather, it is often only through experience that a practitioner may gain the requisite knowledge and skills. This webinar helps to short-cut the lengthy process of experiential learning by examining, in a live Q&A session between two highly experienced patent attorneys, a number of case studies of relevance to conflict situations, and seeking to identify the best approach in each case based on the presented facts.
