Intellectual Property

We also assist clients in protecting, registering, transacting and managing Intellectual Property, including patents, trademarks and copyright, and have unparalleled experience litigating complex and high-stakes IP litigation in the pharmaceutical, high technology, telecommunications, oil and gas, mining and manufacturing sectors. If and when disputes arise, clients trust us to assert IP and to defend against IP claims brought by others.

Clients from a multitude of industries choose Goodmans when they want client-focused, tailor-made strategies for building and managing IP portfolios and designing around the IP of their competitors.  While our industry-specific experience is vast, we recognize each client is unique and approach each mandate with empathy and a passion to learn and understand our client’s business and how IP can and should play a role in it.  As a business firm, our IP group regularly engages in transactional work, including conducting due diligence, transferring assets and taking security interests.
