From acquisitions through portfolio building, licensing, defense, enforcement and sales, Olshan IP lawyers advise and assist clients in maximizing the value of their IP assets and protect them from infringers.
Our Intellectual Property Group has extensive experience advising on IP rights, negotiating asset transactions involving IP, IP portfolio acquisitions, technology-transfer and license agreements, IP licensing arrangements, collaborations, and distribution and manufacturing agreements.
For clients in industries spanning iconic fashion brands to consumer goods to tech products, we guide clients on the strategic use of IP transactions to strengthen their IP portfolios and position them to compete successfully in markets around the world. Our lawyers also represent advertisers and advertising agencies in drafting and negotiating client-agency agreements, handle marketing and advertising contracts, and negotiate celebrity sponsorship, endorsement, influencer and promotions deals. In addition, we regularly weigh in on IP-related aspects of corporate transactions, including mergers, acquisitions and sales of divisions, entities and assets.
Clients often call on us to conduct due diligence, to research and review trademarks and IP portfolios of intended targets to assess the status and extent of protection of the IP, to confirm that IP registrations were properly maintained and to ensure any infringement risks are addressed.
Backed by our IP Litigation Group, should an IP-related dispute arise, we are well-prepared to resolve it in or out of court.
