INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LICENSING
Intellectual property licensing is the critical common denominator among all disciplines of intellectual property. Licensing is the tool that heightens the value of intellectual property rights, and the lack of licensing is typically the cause of intellectual property litigation.

Licensing provides companies of all sizes the opportunity to protect technological advantage, generate new revenue and build partnerships with other innovative companies. Smaller companies may decide to concentrate on research and development and desire to license out their patents. Larger companies frequently find themselves with valuable patents no longer relevant to their own business.

We assist our clients in negotiating, drafting, construing, and enforcing license agreements. We also assist our clients who desire to license the patents of others, and negotiate or litigate to conclusion licensing disputes. We are also experienced in structuring joint development and joint venture relationships.
