Have you considered using IP to foster collaborations and reduce technology spend?
What have you done strategically vis-à-vis your competitors using IP or licensing your IP?
If you have a specialty business, have you done everything with IP to extract its value?
If you have a commodity business, have you asked if you can specialize it with IP?
Are you constantly dealing with pricing pressures and competition - IP can help?
Are you being confronted with the importation of competing products - IP can help?
We will spend whatever time is required with you to understand your business and technology, your IP positions and those of your competitors, and your challenges, goals and objectives. Other than immediate risk mitigation or staffing matters, this action is exactly that which an experienced Chief IP Counsel would proactively tackle.
We will work with your company
as an integrated and supportive team member to develop IP Excellence tailored to your specific business goals and objectives.
Our services include helping you implement an IP Strategy and IP Management processes and systems right-sized and justifiable for your organization. We can help develop and implement standardized IP processes and best practices with measurable results for implementing world-class IP Management for your company.
We can help with IP database selection processes, conversions to upgraded or new database, or help you refine and enhance your existing system and processes. We could manage this for you, or support those in your organization.
If you are looking for IP cost transparency, reliable spend forecasting, and budget preparation, we can help you implement a proven solution. We are also available to help you rationalize your IP spend, help you with lowering unit cost for all IP services globally, or simply finding a way to meet your budget target.
We can provide you with practical and experienced IP advice
and solutions for maximizing global protections with strategic solutions for reducing spend.
We can also help you create a culture for IP protection, and stimulate, encourage and heighten the awareness and understanding for the significance of IP within your company. We will design IP Training specifically for your business and technology, and train your internal lawyers, agents and paralegals in best practices.
We will implement with you an IP Risk Mitigation plan for addressing your IP risks before they occur, and help you maintain your acceptable risk tolerances with a policy and processes for managing them. Understanding your competitive IP threats will help us guide your implementation of best practices for strategically and timely handling your IP risks for your specific business priorities.
We will work with your current IP outside counsel to improve quality, efficiency, cost structure, and communication as you would expect from having your own internal counsel. We can help you manage cost or provide your organization with a second set of eyes.
We can provide you with practical guidance and advice for most all IP related questions quickly because of our experience and we have various monthly service fee arrangements for doing so as well.
IP EXCELLENCE WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH THE PROVEN LEADERSHIP AND INGENUITY YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM HAVING YOUR OWN VIRTUAL, AWARD-WINNING, CHIEF IP COUNSEL
our main Goal is to help you
with differentiated and sophisticated legal services only available from a peer recognized global IP champion.
IP Excellence is not in direct competition with your current law firm.
We are available to provide you services not typically provided by outside counsel either because of experience or expense in doing so.
Our principal role is to serve as your personal internal IP counsel, and while we can help with the nuts-and-bolts of IP work, i.e. drafting patent applications, our intent will be to outsource and manage this with your current law firm.
If you do not have a law firm, then we will recommend or arrange for the basic IP work to be performed by a highly reputable law firm.
We will also manage the work and lawyers
as diligently as you would expect from your own inside counsel, to include quality, cost, communication and efficiency.
In this role, we will ensure that any lawyer representing your IP work understands your business and acts consistently within your IP Strategy, and any other specific requirements. The outcome of this symbiotic relationship in time will result in leaving you with outside counsel who will represent you on a go-forward basis consistent with your expectations of having your own inside counsel.
