D Young & Co boosts IP practice in Germany

D Young & Co has appointed Uli Foerstl as a partner at the firm’s Munich office.

Prior to joining, Foerstl was a partner in Olswang’s (now CMS) IP group based in Munich.

He has previously worked in the IP department of Lovells (now Hogan Lovells), and was a founding partner of a Munich-based IP boutique firm of patent attorneys and lawyers.

It follows the appointment of Hanns-Juergen Grosse as a partner in the firm’s European patent practice in January. The pair will “spearhead the growth of D Young & Co in Germany,” according to a statement.

“Uli is an excellent fit with our team of IP litigators,” said Neil Nachshen, chair of D Young & Co.

“Our goal is to continue investing into the growth of our firm, to service our clients’ global needs for innovative IP protection and enforcement.”
