Effective licensing of intellectual property involves much more than looking at the immediate financial benefits. Karr Tuttle Campbell attorneys are committed to helping you get the most out of your patents, copyrights, trademarks, and/or trade secrets.
A license agreement grants another the right to use your intellectual property, usually in exchange for money. The agreement must be negotiated and put into writing. We will work with you to review the details of the agreement, make sure its terms are fit your situation, and ensure that your interests and rights are protected.
The way that a licensee treats your licensed intellectual property is just as important as the obvious financial consequences of the licensing agreement itself. We will work to ensure that your trademark, trade secret, patent, or copyright is treated in a manner that does not decrease its value. In fact, we will take great care to guide you into agreements that can serve to increase the value of your intellectual property, with the goal of leading to additional licensing deals.
Should the licensee not treat your intellectual property with the level of care that is agreed upon, we will seek to resolve the matter swiftly, to prevent any harm to your valuable intellectual assets. We will make every effort to see that you succeed.
