We immerse ourselves in understanding our client’s objectives in order to tailor strategies that best achieve their short-and long-term objectives.
Mindful of the financial investments required to develop a comprehensive patent portfolio, we take a structured, phased approach and meet the client wherever they may be on the development continuum:
- Initially, we focus on securing broad patents that cover key technologies. These can have varying claim scope in order to provide the most diversified protection.
- We create a multifaceted portfolio to give our clients an advantage in licensing deals and position them for joint ventures or research collaborations, including licensing-in patents as well as defensive patents in competition-heavy areas.
- We protect trademarks and trade secrets, including protecting names or symbols by filing intent to use trademark applications early on in development.
- When patent protection is not viable or appropriate, we help devise mechanisms to protect their innovations as trade secrets.
