Patents protect the technological edge of your business. At Kayrouz & Associates, we guide clients through every stage of the patent process—from drafting and filing applications to managing multi-jurisdictional patent portfolios. Our lawyers work closely with inventors, engineers, and in-house legal teams to translate innovation into enforceable legal rights.
We assist with patentability assessments and freedom-to-operate analyses, helping clients understand where their inventions stand in a competitive landscape. We also handle complex filing strategies through national routes, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Patent Office, and the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) system.
Beyond initial prosecution, we support businesses in maintaining and optimizing their patent portfolios. This includes managing renewals, handling oppositions, advising on licensing or sale of patents, and responding to infringement risks. For R&D-heavy industries, we serve as long-term strategic partners ensuring that IP assets align with commercial growth.
Whether protecting a single invention or overseeing hundreds of patents, we bring clarity and structure to the complex world of innovation law.
We offer legal advice on a wide spectrum of matters:
- Drafting and filing patent applications in the UAE and abroad
- Patentability and freedom-to-operate assessments
- PCT and GCC regional patent filings
- Patent portfolio strategy, audits, and valuation
- Responses to office actions and examiner objections
- Renewals, maintenance, and patent annuities
- IP licensing, assignment, and monetization support
