Reduce your IP Risks

We work closely with clients to reduce their intellectual property-related risks.  Typically this might involve:

  • Advising on and managing strategic freedom to operate and landscape analyses (whether patent or trade mark related, etc).
  • Conducting invalidation reviews and exercises and building defensive strategies.
  • Facilitating meetings and war games to test & evolve strategies in advance (depicting action thresholds, actions and reactions taken in a risk situation, etc).
  • Building internal systems to assess, report and mitigate IP Risk.
  • Establishing IP Security protocols.
