Ulf H. Grundmann > King & Spalding LLP > Frankfurt, Germany > Lawyer Profile

King & Spalding LLP focuses on regulatory advice in the life sciences space. Practice head Ulf Grundmann and senior associate Elisabeth Kohoutek cover both the interface between pharmaceutical and food law and the regulatory framework for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. In 2020, the health claims regulation, the counterfeit drug directive, including advice on the corresponding trade mark law issues and the representation of Novartis in a market-known ECJ procedure, as well as the regulatory support of transactions were among the practice’s core areas. Growth was seen in particular in data protection issues, also in the context of digital health, artificial intelligence and ESG. The German practice regularly cooperates with the US colleagues in the Washington DC office.
