Licensing Disputes

Licensing Disputes Lawyers

When one entity licenses intellectual property to another, both parties expect to profit from the licensing agreement. Both parties are also expected to adhere to the terms of the agreement. When there is a disagreement as to what the terms mean, or when the terms are not met, you need a licensing dispute attorney who understands the specific issues presented by intellectual property and licensing matters.

At the  National Business Litigation Group, our member law firms and international strategic partners understand the concerns both of those who own intellectual property and those who license the property. We can help you resolve whatever licensing issues your company faces through negotiation or litigation.

• When you license a process, a design, or a product, all the potential issues should be considered in the contract. Contact a licensing dispute lawyer about your contract.
• Are your company’s intellectual property rights being protected and properly enforced under the licensing agreement?
• Is the company licensing your intellectual property paying the agreed-upon royalties?
• Is the party licensing your product or process using it properly? Misuse can decrease the value of your intellectual property and your future license agreements.
• Did the owner of the product, design, or process supply all the necessary documentation? Was enough information imparted to the licensee to allow them to make proper use of the patent?
• Did they license the product to more than one company without agreement? Is exclusivity being honored?
• Is your patent or other intellectual property being infringed upon or misappropriated by others?

Intellectual property is one of your company’s most valuable assets. Its use through licensing can be of value to both parties when the licensing agreement is properly honored.
