TECHNOLOGY LAW & TRADEMARKS

At the start, IP is often informal and poorly documented, leading to high risks of ownership disputes later. We help founders build a solid legal foundation by:

● Drafting Founder IP Assignment Agreements and employee/contractor IP agreements.

● Developing early IP strategies to weigh patents against trade secrets.

● Conducting brand naming and trademark analysis to ensure market viability.

● Performing IP intake and gap assessments to secure asset ownership from day one.

As you deploy software, AI, or platforms, the introduction of third-party tools and data creates new layers of risk. We secure your development process through:

● Establishing AI usage policies and data governance frameworks.

● Drafting SaaS agreements, software development contracts, and beta-user terms.

● Managing open-source license compliance and early licensing strategies.

● Allocating risk through tailored indemnification structures and limitation of liability.

Increased revenue and brand visibility bring higher regulatory and consumer risk. We help you scale safely by:

● Structuring commercial licensing, white label, and distribution agreements.

● Drafting robust customer terms and conditions and API integration agreements.

● Managing privacy compliance and consumer protection reviews.

● Executing trademark and IP enforcement planning to protect your growing brand.

Scaling into new markets involves more employees, more vendors, and increased investor scrutiny. We provide the governance needed for expansion:

● Developing enterprise AI governance frameworks and data privacy programs.

● Planning defensive IP strategies and portfolio expansion.

● Conducting vendor, technology, and open-source audits to ensure supply chain integrity.

● Mapping cross-border compliance and sector-specific regulations.

When it’s time to exit or secure major investment, IP becomes the primary valuation driver. We prepare you for the highest level of scrutiny:

● Performing IP due diligence and chain-of-title verification to surface and fix historical mistakes.

● Providing IP valuation support and risk remediation prior to the deal.

● Drafting assignment and transfer agreements, transition services, and licensing carve-outs.

● Negotiating representations, warranties, and indemnities for the transaction.

For established businesses, the focus shifts to efficiency, monetization, and ongoing protection. Our team assists with:

● Royalty audits and monetization strategies to maximize asset value.

● Portfolio licensing and asset divestiture.

● Continuous AI system monitoring and policy refreshes.

● Establishing incident response plans for IP leakage or data incidents.

When regulatory inquiries, AI malfunctions, or data misuse occur, swift legal action is required. We provide:

● Internal investigations and regulatory engagement.

● Comprehensive remediation plans and risk framework overhauls.

● IP repositioning and technology transition planning during a strategic pivot.
