02. Patent Landscape Studies

Our patent landscape studies are some of the most comprehensive competitive landscapes available and are proving increasingly valuable as business decision-making tools for our clients. Through our access to both national and international databases, we are able to paint a picture of pending patent applications, existing patents, and the direction of research and development in a variety of fields. This
the thorough analysis becomes a blueprint that helps business owners and innovators understand the competition’s plans and develop an effective strategy.

Our patent landscape reports help clients look at large quantities of data while visualizing the bigger picture. Typically, the study includes a graphical representation of the available and pending patents in a particular field, how they relate to one another, the classification of those patents and where they are geographically, and much more.

In essence, you can use this report to determine the best markets for your innovation, by:

Identifying potential holes in research and development.
Determining which of your patents is the most valuable.
Evaluating other innovations taking place in your space.

And, discover more about the competition, by:

03. Non-Infringement Opinions

We help our clients avoid the costly expense of wasted time and resources committed to developing and manufacturing new products that may infringe upon an existing patent. An infringement opinion is a useful tool that helps protect innovators by researching and evaluating products or services that are similar to the client’s and determining and providing a recommendation to either proceed as planned or
make changes in order to avoid willful infringement.

We have access to national and international resources for conducting infringement and validity searches in order to assure that the most relevant pieces of information are identified, analyzed, and considered in the process of drafting our opinions. These opinions are helpful insurance policies against the possible future litigation, as they demonstrate that innovators have made every possible effort to
avoid infringing on an existing patent.

04. Competitive Intelligence

For our innovative clients, business is often a battlefield, and conducting competitive intelligence allows them to make appropriate strategic business decisions in order to grow and thrive. Our competitive intelligence reports give detailed insight into competitors’ progress and existing patents within a given field, sometimes years before a company publicly announces its latest developments.

We help our clients build a competitive landscape that identifies top competitors, zeroes in on emerging trends in research and development, and determines the existing strengths and weaknesses of the competition. Monitoring the competitive landscape also helps our clients avoid costly legal proceedings by identifying which competitors may already be involved in litigation.
