Background

We have a long-standing experience in the preparation and filing of patents of medical devices for high-tech companies. Our patent lawyers have combined knowledge of law and the technology of medical devices, specifically optics, chemistry, biology and others.

Multidisciplinary knowledge and experience

One of the uniqueness of the field of medical device is that it combines different and diverse fields under one umbrella such as mechanics, optic, design, physics, software and biology are all related and linked to medical devices. 

Israel is one of the major leaders  in this field and the scope of development and export of medical equipment is increasing year by year. Accordingly, we too have accumulated years of experience in patenting medical devices. 

In addition, patenting in the medical field requires a thorough and up-to-date professional knowledge of the patent laws in Israel and around the world in order to know how and what can be protected by patents.
