IP Due Diligence

Overview

Our intellectual property due diligence services include identifying, assessing, and evaluating intellectual property assets in mergers, acquisitions or intellectual property sales.

Measuring the portfolio’s value--which may include patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, brand names, and domain names --before the contract is signed, avoids pitfalls and finding holes after the acquisition. By leveraging our due diligence services, clients can save time and expense during these significant business dealings.

For each client, Volpe Koenig constructs a team of attorneys with the appropriate mix of technical and legal expertise, enabling us to ask the right questions and consider the right factors in determining whether a piece of intellectual property is sufficiently valuable given our clients’ business model and industry. Our recommendations focus on what clients most need to know now, thereby ensuring the profitability of a potential acquisition.  We also consider how patents “on the table” may help clients defend against competitors, providing such information in a timely manner that is often needed in these time-sensitive transactions.

Our professionals have experience with industry standards and international legal requirements for broader based transactions. We identify potential problems in the enforceability of intellectual property rights, infringement and validity positions. Additionally, we have experience assessing third party intellectual property portfolios in conjunction with non-traditional transactions. Whether looking to buy, sell, or evaluate, an intellectual property portfolio, Volpe Koenig has vast experience with the due diligence required for the transaction.
