Protection for digital systems.

Digital strategy.

Understand codes.
Protect structures.
Shape the future.

Software is more than just code—it’s often the heart of complex systems. And: In many cases, it's patentable. Whether it's AI structures, motor control units, quality assurance, data processing, or special display formats— protecting technical software solutions is possible. Provided you know how.


At FLACH BAUER & PARTNER, we combine financial strategy with a technical understanding of digital systems. Our patent attorneys have a background in physics, engineering, and complex systems technology. We don't think of software in abstract terms, but in functional, structured terms, and with a view to protective effect and competitive dynamics.

Protection for software.

Technical mindset meets digital protection strategy

Patentable software requires clear technical substance, as in the case of control systems, forms of data transmission, or functional sequences, for example. We can help you identify these core innovations and protect them strategically.

Whether it’s traditional software development, AI application, neural network, or an embedded system: We will formulate industrial property rights that are technically effective and make financial sense. We will also communicate with your developers—directly, clearly, and with a focus on solutions.

For development teams, product management, and technology management

We provide advice at an early stage—even during the concept stage, if desired. Whether it’s an application, defense, or portfolio support: We will contribute ideas—based on technology and with the market in mind. We are also a reliable partner for DE/EU industrial property rights for international law firms and digital companies.
