Licensing

McDonnell Boehnen Hulbert & Berghoff LLP licensing professionals routinely handle the wide range of intellectual property licensing and technology agreements that are typically needed for start-ups, technology transfer offices, and multinational corporations. Our services include developing deal strategy, drafting and negotiating IP-related transaction documents, advising on agreement disputes, performing thorough due diligence of IP assets and related agreements in connection with auditing, licensing, and M&A activities, counseling on employee agreements, policy considerations, and issues related to IP and governmental regulations, and managing out-licensing portfolios.

Our licensing professionals include patent attorneys in a wide range of technical disciplines that allow us to obtain a thorough understanding of the underlying technology. We apply that knowledge and the applicable legal principles to strategically advise clients in the negotiation and commercialization of their intellectual property rights.
