Intellectual Property

There are many issues that you could face relating to IP in your business. You should have a trusted advisor to help you navigate them. Every business has some intellectual property. In some cases, you can license it and monetize it. In some cases, you want to use it exclusively in your own marketing and promotion. And in other cases, like the proverbial secret formula, you may want to hide it and protect it. But no matter whether we’re talking about your copyrights, patents, trademarks, or trade secrets, I can help you with handling your IP needs. I’ve drafted several IP licensing agreements over the years, including cross-border agreements, and I have experience in negotiating to keep your obligations small and your rights large, regardless of whether you’re the licensor or licensee. And, when litigation has threatened, I’ve both written and responded to cease and desist letters.
