PRACTICE
Intellectual Property
Global intellectual property strategies for patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets.
Our intellectual property lawyers develop and implement global protection and commercialization strategies for clients with IP assets in virtually all industry areas. Our forward-thinking, proactive strategies help clients mitigate risk while maximizing protection and value. As former inventors, we fully understand the pivotal role innovators play within organizations, enabling us to partner closely with our clients to transform their ideas into groundbreaking advancements.
With resources around the world, including an office in London, our team of attorneys, patent agents, and other professionals offer comprehensive advice on the development, acquisition, management, and monetization of intellectual property. Our attorneys and technical advisors have Ph.D.s and other advanced technical degrees in diverse disciplines, and many have enjoyed successful careers as inventors, researchers, engineers, physicians, and scientists before joining the firm. Each of our new attorneys undergoes extensive training in all aspects of intellectual property law before settling into their area of focus.
In addition to providing the complete range of services for patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets, we assist clients with litigation and dispute resolution, licensing, and other transactions. Our first-chair litigators handle all phases of trials and appeals and have considerable experience before quasi-judicial agencies such as the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC), and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). Our clients range from startups and Fortune 100 companies to academic and research institutions, business incubators, and technology companies in a variety of industries.
