IP LAW

Protecting Ideas like a chef protects their secret chowder recipe.

In today’s economy, your ideas are often more valuable than your inventory. Whether you’re a creator, a coder, or a company buying another company, you need someone who doesn’t just file forms, but who actually understands what makes your intellectual property tick.

What I do:

  • Safeguard creative assets – register and manage copyrights, trademarks, patents and trade secrets so you can sleep at night.

  • Defend against infringement – from cease‑and‑desist letters to federal litigation, I fight to stop misuse of your IP.

  • Conduct IP due diligence – evaluate and value IP portfolios in mergers, acquisitions and financings, and flag hidden risks.

  • Draft and negotiate licensing & tech agreements – licensing, assignment, software and SaaS agreements, joint ventures and cross‑licensing deals.

  • Navigate international IP – handle Madrid Protocol and PCT filings, and coordinate protection across borders.

  • Maximize value – advise on monetization strategies (royalty structures, merchandising, joint ventures) and help integrate IP into your broader business plans.
