He specializes in intellectual property law, both in contentious and transactional work. Being admitted in England & Wales and in France, Emmanuel has been involved in a range of multi-jurisdiction intellectual property matters, including litigation of electronics, pharmaceutical and chemical patents, as well as validity litigation, compulsory licenses, infringement and freedom to use opinions.
