INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Helping clients maximize the potential of their intellectual assets.
Our intellectual property group works with our clients to get the most out of their intellectual property assets. We assist clients in developing these assets from inception. We counsel on intellectual property creation; file applications and secure registrations; aid our clients in exploiting their assets through the drafting of licensing agreements, technology transfer and e-commerce arrangements; monitor their IP portfolios; enforce their IP rights; bring and defend against infringement actions; and buy and sell intellectual property holdings as dictated by their business objectives.

Our clients benefit from our counseling and litigation expertise.
Our clients have differing intellectual property needs, ranging from the negotiation and acquisition of film, television, music and publishing rights in the entertainment industry to the licensing and protection of proprietary software, medical devices and biological materials in the technology and biopharmaceutical fields, as well as licensing manufacturing processes and other know-how for production purposes.. We counsel and litigate in the areas of copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy, publicity, fair use and unfair competition. We represent clients in federal and state court litigations, ICANN proceedings, and in actions brought in the copyright and trademark offices.

We perform pre-publication review, analyze intellectual property asset portfolios, structure research, development, transfer and licensing transactions, and aggressively enforce and defend our clients’ intellectual property rights.
