Patent-related litigation

If legal or technical issues arise during your patent registration in Saudi Arabia, causing delays or rejection, we have the expertise to manage these professionally: improving your claim drafting, responding to examiner objections or just advising you on the required next steps.

We provide specialised legal and technical expertise in these areas, helping you draft applications in line with modern standards and protecting them in the era of rapid digital transformation.

03

Patent infringement cases

Protection after registration is critical, especially given the growing instances of patent infringement. At Al Othman, we take all necessary legal action to pursue infringers, starting with formal legal warnings and up to litigation before the competent courts.

Disputes may arise during the transfer of patent ownership if proper legal documentation is not in place.

At Al Othman, we represent clients in defending their patents, prepare all needed technical studies and ensure reliable registration.

Patent renewal issues

Renewal is your safety net for ongoing protection: many patents lose their value because renewal deadlines are missed or fees are unpaid.
