Protecting and Commercializing Your Innovation
We design and execute filing and enforcement strategies for patents, trademarks, and copyrights in the U.S., China, and other markets—enabling clients to secure and monetize their intellectual property globally and address
Our attorneys’ experience includes advising:
- A consumer electronics manufacturer on negotiating and executing settlement and licensing agreements with U.S.-based non-practicing patent entities.
- A U.S.-based non-profit on copyright licensing strategies.
- A global hardware producer on trademark protection for its products and distinctive product features.
Why IP Protection Matters
Without robust IP protection, competitors can copy your products, dilute your brand, and undermine your market position.
- Registration gaps: IP rights are territorial—U.S. protection doesn’t extend overseas.
- Enforcement hurdles: Legal standards vary across countries.
Licensing risks: Poorly drafted agreements can give away more rights than intended.
Our Approach
We help clients align their IP strategy with their business goals, coordinating with trusted local counsel where foreign filings or enforcement are required. Our services include:
- Trademark and patent filing in the U.S. and coordination abroad.
- IP enforcement actions, including cease-and-desist letters and litigation.
- Structuring and negotiating licensing, assignment, and co-branding agreements.
- Managing global IP portfolios and monitoring for infringement.
