Intellectual Property and Technology

Overview

Human imagination advances constantly and at a breakneck pace—and so do the efforts to improperly acquire the intellectual property (“IP”) that is the foundation of new products and creations.

From software, branding, and mechanical inventions to novels to sheet music, the products of imagination and innovation must be protected so that the rightful owners can realize their full potential. Proper protection requires careful preparation and planning during the creation of IP, and immediate and aggressive litigation against potential infringers.
