Intellectual Property
We understand that Intellectual Property denotes the specific legal rights that are designed to protect different forms of subject matter, ideas and expressions that authors, inventors and other IP holders may possess and exercise. Industrial intellectual property can be protected through copyright, patent, industrial design right, trade market and trade secret.
We offer a range of services from prior art search for patent invalidation and prosecution, detailed patentability search, freedom to operate search and the construction of intellectual property maps for an industry, individual company or specific technologies. We can educate and train clients in an industrial prospective of intellectual property development from idea conception, reduction to practice, understanding prior art to design around existing prior art.
We attribute our success to a diverse industrial background that allows us to understand the breadth of technologies that may be incorporated in a search topic outside of standard search classifications. Our diverse industrial background and knowledge enables us to easily gather industrial information that maybe required for litigation. We subscribe to numerous journals from various industries. This practice diversifies our knowledge base and provides us with information that may be used to generate ideas. Examples of topics are genetics engineering, photonics, chemical processing, plant operation, flow control, corrosion control, plastics, plastics engineering, composites, nanoparticles, medical design, pharmaceutical development and processing, polymer chemistry, analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, biotechnology and processing, coatings, research and development, packaging, industrial, thermodynamics and science discovery journals.
