Chemical

The chemical field is wide and diverse, ranging from pharmaceuticals to polymers. Whether it is a new pharmaceutical drug or catalyst for use in an industrial process, we have professionals with the relevant background to allow us to understand your invention and advise on the best way to protect it. Bereskin & Parr LLP has assembled a team of individuals with strong educational and technical backgrounds in the chemical and biochemical fields to meet the demands and challenges of this complex area.

Many of the professionals in our Chemical group have industry and research experience to add to their graduate and doctoral degrees in chemistry, biochemistry, organic chemistry, and chemical engineering. This allows us to work directly with inventors to develop the strongest possible intellectual property protection in areas such as pharmaceuticals, biochemistry, agriculture, environmental science, material science, food science, cosmetics, nanotechnology, and chemical reagents and processes.

To obtain proper intellectual property protection also requires thorough knowledge and understanding of the prior art. In addition to members of our Chemical group’s education and business backgrounds, our group includes experienced searchers who are trained to perform prior art searches in the key chemical databases, including structure-based and patent databases.

Clients of the chemical practice group include universities, hospitals, research facilities, independent chemical researchers, and Canadian and multinational chemical and pharmaceutical companies.
