Congratulations to our hard-working colleagues who have recently passed their European Qualifying Exams (EQEs) exams and are now qualified European Patent Attorneys.
The effort and years of study and practical application it takes to become a qualified patent attorney is not to be underestimated and for all five exam-takers from Abel + Imray to pass every single EQE paper taken this year is definitely something to celebrate!
We are extremely proud of Gavin, Katy, Natasha, Sarah and Shaun for achieving a clean sweep on passing their EQEs. As a result, they are now all dual-qualified patent attorneys, officially recognised as having the skills and expertise necessary to represent clients before both the European Patent Office and the UK Intellectual Property Office.
