IP licensing is the critical common denominator among all intellectual property disciplines. Licensing is the tool that heightens the value of IP rights, and the lack of licensing typically is the cause of litigation.
Licensing provides companies the opportunity to protect their technological advantage, generate new revenue and build partnerships with other innovative companies. Smaller companies may concentrate on research and development and licensing out their patents. Larger companies frequently find themselves with valuable patents no longer relevant to their own business.
This practice assists clients in the due diligence, negotiating, drafting, construing and enforcing of license agreements. We also represent clients who desire to license the patents of others and negotiate or litigate to conclusion licensing disputes. Our attorneys have extensive experience in structuring joint development and joint venture relationships taking into consideration IP licensing.
Our IP licensing practice provides licensing services to clients from Puerto Rico, the U.S. mainland, Latin America, Europe and Asia.
