A strong patent portfolio is a powerful deterrent against patent infringement lawsuits brought by a competitor. For those who seek additional assurance, we maintain intelligence on the patents issued to the competitors of our clients. We also monitor new product developments and company invention disclosures in order to identify technological improvements that warrant freedom-to-operate investigations. When necessary, we render non-infringement and validity opinions and conduct brainstorming sessions to design around any problematic patents.

We do not litigate. Litigation costs millions of dollars, which is exactly what our startup clients are trying to raise, not spend.
