Intellectual Property & Technology
Our Intellectual Property & Technology attorneys offer the complete range of legal services for the identification, development, acquisition, protection, commercialization and enforcement of intellectual property (IP) assets and related technology.

Our licensing and transactional attorneys develop a sophisticated understanding of our clients' businesses and dedicate time to understanding the industries in which our clients operate.
