Our focus on intellectual property provides a fresh and innovative approach to advising sophisticated clients on business strategy, consulting and transactions. We serve as general intellectual property counsel for high-growth start-ups, generational businesses, angel investor groups, venture capital firms, and growth-oriented businesses throughout the United States.
Your intellectual property assets may not be immediately apparent to you - often you own more than you think. We can help you recognize the depth of your assets and assist you in leveraging and monetizing them effectively. From patents to trademarks, we work with you to develop tailored strategies for maximizing the value of your IP. Whether you're a startup or an established enterprise, we're dedicated to helping you transform your intellectual assets into opportunities for growth and profitability, ensuring that your business legacy is protected and enhanced.
We also provide representation for business law matters on an as-needed basis. Regardless of the scope of your firm or company’s needs, we can provide forward-thinking advice and a custom-tailored solution focused on long-term growth and profitability.
What We Do
So, what can we do for you? Our business law services include:
Due Diligence for Investments, Corporate Transactions and M&A
We provide comprehensive due diligence services for investments, mergers and acquisitions, and other corporate transactions. If you want to be confident that you are making an informed investment or business decision, we can ensure that you have the information and insights you need.
Business Formations and Capital Raising
We have extensive experience assisting clients with business formations in view of growth. When ready, we assist our clients with capital raising or debt offerings. We can help you choose the most appropriate entity and organizational structure based on your business or investment goals, and we can help lay the foundation for a profitable and secure business. By developing and executing an informed business formation strategy at the outset of your IP-driven business venture, we can also help you avoid potentially costly disputes and “piercing” claims in the future.
IP Licensing and Monetization
With our foundation in intellectual property, we have extensive experience guiding clients through the IP licensing and monetization processes. When working with angel investor groups and venture capital firms, we assist with conducting diligence and making realistic assessments of the viability of target entities’ IP monetization strategies and strengths.
IP Strategy and Management
Assisting clients with IP strategy and management is one of our greatest strengths. From identifying assets that can (and should) be protected, to monitoring and enforcing our clients’ exclusive rights, we take a comprehensive and full-service approach to helping our clients maximize the value of their intellectual property.
Franchising
We assist IP owners with franchising, with extensive experience creating and growing franchise systems. If you are interested in franchising your brand or concept, or if your firm is acquiring a franchise system and needs experienced outside counsel, we can help you protect and leverage your IP, while establishing and maintaining compliance with all pertinent state and federal requirements.
Business Transactions
Our attorneys represent clients in connection with all types of business transactions, from IP licenses to general business contracts. When representing clients in contract negotiations, we take a practical approach that focuses on protecting our clients’ interests while taking into account the real-world aspects and implications of the deal.
