Simmons & Simmons

The patents team at Simmons & Simmons regularly handles patent infringement litigation both before the UPC, European, and French courts for international clients in the health and life sciences industry, as well as the telecoms sector. The group was bolstered by the arrival of electronics specialist Abdelaziz Khatab, who is also noted by clients for his FRAND knowledge, and he co-heads the team alongside Sarah Bailey, who has expertise in the healthcare and life sciences sectors. Frédérique Potin is lauded by clients for her clear and pragmatic advice. François Jonquères departed the firm in June of 2024.
