Karl-Heinz Metten

Expert patent guidance for our international expansion

We engaged Karl-Heinz Metten of Boehmert & Boehmert to secure patent protection for a new manufacturing process as we prepared to enter the European market. His recognition as a Patent Attorney by Best Lawyers was a key factor in our selection. While his primary office is in Frankfurt, his coordination with our Indianapolis-based team was seamless. His deep understanding of both German and broader European patent law was invaluable; he expertly navigated the nuances we hadn't anticipated, particularly regarding process claims. The strategy he developed was thorough and commercially astute. Our one minor suggestion would be to establish slightly more predictable windows for email responses across the time zone difference, though his substantive replies were always comprehensive. For any company with transatlantic IP needs, Karl-Heinz provides a formidable combination of recognized expertise and practical, strategic counsel.
