FRANK B. BEHN & CO.
Patents protect technological inventions, such as new machines, products, processes, computer software and so forth. In some countries it is possible to obtain patents for non-technical developments such as business methods. An invention must be new, and in Europe and many other countries must not even be disclosed publicly by the inventor before a patent application is filed. In the United States and some other countries it may be possible to seek protection even if an invention has been disclosed. 

Solicitors here undertake arbitration proceedings and all other methods of alternative dispute resolution, including for example adjudication, determination of issues by agreed experts and informal mediation. 

Among the largest and most progressive firms of European Patent & Trade Mark Attorneys, Murgitroyd & Company have extensive experience of working with international organisations from all industrial sectors.
