Patent Litigation In The Netherlands: What You Need To Know

August 20, 2018, Law360

Nitin Subhedar is quoted in a Law360 article regarding patent litigation in the Netherlands. Mr. Subhedar says, “If you can get a finding of infringement and an injunction in the Netherlands, you can effectively use that as a chokepoint to stop a lot of the inflow of the infringing products into the rest of the EU. That's why the Netherlands is a particularly attractive forum for a patent holder to consider if you're trying to reach products in Europe." He adds, "Generally speaking, if you're able to establish ... the elements of your infringement claim and you can do that through the written submissions, there's certainly a path, even without discovery, to get to infringement findings."
