We formulate solutions through direct communication with our clients, preferably in face-to-face meetings. Contact us to schedule an exploratory meeting to discuss your trade secrets.

When is intellectual property litigation appropriate?

An intellectual property lawsuit can be expensive. Our attorneys understand that and work hard to favorably resolve your problems without going to trial. When the traditional approaches to infringement-cease and desist letter, temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions-fail to produce the desired results, we have the experience to use the legal process to protect your useful or creative ideas, whether through litigation or through alternative dispute resolution.

When determining whether to pursue litigation or alternative dispute resolution, we first identify our client’s business needs and goals. We ask specific questions.

• Does the client need to collect a large amount in damages? Or is it more important to get the infringing party to desist from further infringement?
• Is it important that a court decision set precedent and be highly visible in order to prevent future offenders? Or is confidentiality more important?
• Does the client want to punish the other party for their infringement? Or do they need to maintain a working relationship with that party in the future?
• Is a decision needed quickly?
• Is the client willing to bear the expense of a long courtroom battle?
