Employee Inventions Act
Law on Employees' Inventions (Arbeitnehmererfindungsgesetz, ArbNErfG)
For our German clients, we handle all aspects of inventions made by employees of the client/patentee. After receiving the inventor’s description of the invention, we start with a brief state of the art search, then evaluate the patentability of the invention and, after the invention has been claimed by the client and has been filed as a patent application, we calculate the inventor’s compensation.
