Intellectual Property

Our lawyers understand that intellectual property is a vital asset for many of the individuals and enterprises we serve. We are committed to providing clients bespoke advice on commercializing, prosecuting, and enforcing intellectual property rights. Our team is also skilled at coordinating with the Firm’s other practice groups that intersect with intellectual property matters, such as mergers and acquisitions, venture capital, and employment and labour. This multi-disciplinary approach is evident in our work protecting intellectual property rights throughout capital raising and M&A transactions, as well as negotiating commercial, employment, and confidentiality agreements that delineate the intellectual property rights of founders and key employees. Our areas of focus include:

• Trademarks
• Copyrights
• Infringement, expungement, and enforcement proceedings
• License agreements
• Research agreements
• Software agreements
• Trademarks
• Regulatory compliance and legislative interpretation
