Intellectual property protection is a crucial component for all life science companies. Our life sciences patent lawyers, patent agents and technical staff help assure that the best intellectual property strategy is in place to position and secure intellectual property protection, including patent protection, of our client’s core technology and lead therapeutic moieties, including small molecules, biologics, formulations, delivery systems, companion diagnostics, and medical devices. We have extensive experience in providing intellectual property diligence and assessment of patent landscapes to assist our clients, including operating companies, investors and financial institutions in connection with funding events, including public offerings and private financings, and to solidifying intellectual property positions for acquisition or other exit strategies.
