An Austria furniture manufacturer, relying on an accumulation of century of research and development, experience in manufacturing, and continuous and orderly patent right, utilizes patent rights as weapon to suppress a Guangdong furniture hardware manufacturing company who is a domestic leader and a strong competitor abroad in order to expand its market share.
Our team members, after being entrusted by the Guangdong furniture hardware manufacturing company, gathered evidence and suggested the client to change its target of completely invalidating all patent rights to a target of eliminating threatening patent claims due to lack of effective evidence. In order to achieve the targeted invalidity strategy, our team members enabled the Patent Reexamination Board panel to fully understand the technical solution through using new and intuitive ways such as showing images during the trial, eventually succeeded in the target of partial invalidity and freeing our client from the difficult situation of facing an infringement lawsuit.
