Overview

Toggle Button Open

Protecting intellectual property as a valuable intangible asset has always been a critical part of a successful business. Businesses, large and small, rely on the ideas and innovations that they have brought to market to maintain the value of their companies.

Whether at the beginning of the life cycle of a company, when trademark protection is needed, or later on in the growth of a business in preparing valuable licensing agreements to protect important software, PilieroMazza devotes close attention to safeguarding our clients’ intellectual property rights, confidential information, and trade secrets, helping ensure they receive the full measure of legal protection for these intangible assets.

In the government contracts arena, we are experienced in helping clients interpret and understand data rights rules and regulations, draft intellectual property clauses for subcontracts and teaming agreements, and navigate cybersecurity requirements, to provide maximum protection for intellectual property both in federal contracts and the private sector.  We also advise small business clients on government funded research projects.

Effective intellectual property protection is part of the full range of business legal services that our clients have come to rely on from PilieroMazza.  When problems arise, our litigators demand enforcement of our clients’ rights.
