The article reports on the impending creation of the European Union Unified Patent Court (UPC), which will offer a unified set of laws that should simplify patent litigation and give attorneys new options, as of February 2015. Topics discussed include the varying patent systems in Europe, and the UPC's aim of offering a lower cost alternative to patents currently issued by the European Patent Office (EPO). Also noted is UPC's facilitation of easier coordination of litigation strategies.
