Dr.-Ing. Alexander C.P. Schlotter
Patentanwalt, European Patent Attorney
Dr. Alexander Schlotter is one of the founding partners of Wallinger, Ricker,
Schlotter, Tostmann (WRST). He holds a PhD in engineering and is admitted
as German and European Patent Attorney since 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Technical Expertise
Dr. Schlotter studied mechanical engineering with specialization in theory and
research at the Technische Universität München, where he completed his degree
(“Dipl.-Ing.”) in 1997 with highest honors. During his studies, he gained
further experience as a scientific assistant at various research departments,
inter alia in mechanics, thermodynamics and cybernetics as well as at the
neurological clinic of the Ludwig-Maximilian University Munich (Großhadern).
From 1997 through 2000, Dr. Schlotter collaborated with Prof. Pfeiffer as a research
fellow at the Institute for Applied Mechanics at the Technical University
of Munich, receiving his PhD (“Dr.-Ing.”) with highest honors (summa cum
laude) with his thesis work focused on the dynamics, control and optimization
of a novel tele robot. During this period Dr. Schlotter founded his own engineering
firm and worked, inter alia, on acoustic problems in automatic gears
(in cooperation with Daimler-Chrysler), design of gear drives (in cooperation
with Volkswagen) and vibrations in printing machines (in cooperation with
MAN Roland, MAN Plamag).
Intellectual Property Expertise
Dr. Schlotter is active in the field of Intellectual Property since 2001, initially
at a prestigious large Munich patent firm where he broadened his experience,
inter alia, in medical technology before he started his own patent firm. In 2007
he co-founded Wallinger Ricker Schlotter Tostmann. Since 2009, Dr. Schlotter
is a member of the examining committee for German patent attorneys.
His day-to-day practice comprises, in particular, drafting, prosecuting and
