Noted by a client as the 'best law firm in Spain for patent litigation matters', Grau & Angulo excels in injunction proceedings, infringement matters and counterclaims involving pharmaceutical patents. The group is capable of handling contentious matters at the domestic and European levels, and acts for an expanding client roster featuring names from the life sciences, energy and telecoms sectors, among others. Patent litigator Javier Huarte, a key contact for pharma clients, and telecoms patent specialist Jesús Arribas co-lead the group alongside cross-border litigation authority Alejandro Angulo and Ignacio Pontijas, who concentrates on litigation involving the pharma sector. The firm also benefits from the aptitude of Ignacio Marqués, who focuses on cross-border litigation and licensing agreements. Ana-Laura Morales stands out for her expertise in mechanical and electronic patents, assisting companies with both contentious and non-contentious matters, while José Calvo is especially active in life sciences-related IP issues.
