Our services

Deep & Far prosecutes worldwide patent matters for local clients. For international or foreign clients, Deep & Far prosecutes patent matters mainly in Taiwan and significantly in mainland China and Hong Kong, with minor representation in Macau, Singapore, South Korea and Japan.

The patent attorneys and patent engineers at Deep & Far mostly hold outstanding and advanced degrees and have generally graduated from the top three universities in Taiwan. Our prominent staff members are dedicated to providing the best quality service in intellectual property rights (IPR) in Taiwan. As proof, about one-half of the top corporations in Taiwan have experience in seeking patents for their techniques, and more than one-fifth of the top corporations have used the services of this firm.

Furthermore, high-tech companies in the science-based industrial park, located at Hsinchu, have played the most important role in boosting the economy of Taiwan. About one-half of them have had experience seeking patents for their techniques, and more than 50% of the patent-experienced companies in that park have entrusted their IPR work to this firm. We also represent international giants such as Armani, Baidu, Beckhoff, BYD, CICC, Cypress, Dr Reddy, Infineon, Intercept, InterDigital, Gleason, Grenzebach, Haribo, Lenovo, Lupin, Motorola, MPS, NovaLed, Oppo, Piramal, Schott Glas, Sun Pharma, Torrent, and Toyo Ink.

It is our philosophy to provide competent legal services that other firms cannot comparably provide. The ensuing challenge is how we can provide this. Deep & Far achieves its goal by selecting, edifying and nurturing people who have the following personalities: Learned in expertise, morally earnest and sincere in mind, and strictly disciplined between give and take. It is our belief that such qualities are key factors for people to properly and competently present themselves. By the perseverance that we only do work that enables this firm to be deep and far, Deep & Far can then equate this reality with its name.

To show our extraordinary competence, we would like to take on challenges for the clients. You are welcome to: (1) send us a pending or granted patents for our comments on how we can improve its claims; (2) send us a pending patent specification without the claims for us to draft new claims for comparison with the original claims; or (3) send an initial disclosure to your current counsel and our firm at the same time in order to compare and find out which claim set is better.
