DETAILED INTRODUCTIONS
IP Due Diligence
Intellectual property due diligence is a critical component of any business transaction involving technology or creative assets. Our comprehensive due diligence process includes:
- Comprehensive IP portfolio review and assessment
- Identification of potential risks and liabilities
- Evaluation of IP protection strategies
- Assessment of freedom to operate
- Review of IP-related contracts and agreements
- Valuation support and recommendations
Example:
We conducted comprehensive IP due diligence for a major technology acquisition. Our review identified several potential issues including pending patent litigation, expiring trademarks, and incomplete assignment documentation. We provided detailed recommendations that allowed the client to negotiate better terms and avoid significant post-closing liabilities.
IP Evaluation & Transaction
Our IP evaluation and transaction services help clients maximize the value of their intellectual property assets through strategic transactions. We provide:
- Comprehensive IP valuation using multiple methodologies
- Transaction structuring and negotiation support
- Due diligence coordination and management
- Documentation and closing support
- Post-transaction integration assistance
Example:
We assisted a pharmaceutical company in valuing and structuring the sale of a patent portfolio worth over $50 million. Our valuation analysis considered market conditions, competitive landscape, and regulatory factors. We also provided transaction structuring advice that optimized tax treatment and minimized risk exposure.
IP Transfer, Licensing & Pledge
We provide comprehensive support for IP transfers, licensing, and financing arrangements, ensuring that our clients' interests are protected while maximizing the value of their intellectual property assets.
Our services include:
- Drafting and negotiating license agreements

Example:
We negotiated a complex cross-licensing agreement between two technology companies involving hundreds of patents. The agreement included provisions for ongoing technology sharing, royalty payments, and dispute resolution mechanisms. The deal was successfully completed and has generated significant value for both parties.
Software Copyright Registration
Software copyright registration is essential for protecting your software assets and establishing clear ownership rights. Our specialized services include:
- Software copyright registration with relevant authorities

The panel ruled in our client's favor, and the domain name was transferred. We also implemented a comprehensive domain name monitoring system to prevent future issues.
