IP Law & Litigation
with Uncompromising Attention

 Our Goal

We strive to be a law firm that inspires and develops innovative legal solutions that our team is proud to deliver and that our clients prefer, value, and enthusiastically recommend to their peers and colleagues.

Practice Areas

IP Protection

Competition in the modern global marketplace is fierce, and you will need to position yourself properly. Intellectual property is an essential – not just valuable – business asset.

Litigation

We represent both Plaintiffs and Defendants in actively defending accused infringers and in enforcing the rights of intellectual property owners in all technical diciplines.

Licensing

We approach licensing not as intellectual property lawyers, but as business partners. We tailor the agreement to your business needs in plain, easy-to-understand terms.

 

Portfolio Management

We can provide an assessment of your technologies and develop an effective patent strategy to craft a portfolio that is aligned with your business plan.

Artificial Intelligence

If you are not deploying AI, you will likely lose your competitive edge. When you do integrate AI in your business practices, we can help avoid potential liabilities of this transformative technology.

Pro Bono Program

Our pro bono program focuses on advising litigants at the Court of Federal Claims in activities ranging from intellectual property to employment litigation.

 

IP Excellence powered by DSM

IP Excellence will help you strategically manage and deliver the most value from your IP. Every company invests in their future and IP plays a key role in protecting it. All companies deserve to have access to the same sophisticated, experienced, and differentiated IP services enjoyed by most Fortune-listed companies.
