- Licensing, Transactions, and Technology Transfer: We negotiate and draft licensing agreements, technology transfer deals, joint development contracts, and franchising arrangements, incorporating clauses for royalties, exclusivity, and dispute resolution. Our services extend to due diligence in mergers and acquisitions involving IP portfolios, helping clients maximize value from tech assets in cross-border transactions.

We specialize in domain name disputes under ICANN's Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP) and anti-piracy measures, drawing on our network to execute global enforcement strategies effectively.
