Learn more on the common contract provisions for IP transactions that every lawyer should have.
Virtually every transaction, whether commercial or litigation based, includes a type of intellectual property for which specific terms and conditions must be considered. From patents and trademarks to confidential information and other data, it is critical to include contractual provisions in the bet the company and the day-to-day business agreements that are tailored to protecting the parties' IP interests and reducing the related risks. No longer may boiler plate language be accepted as sufficient. This topic provides examples of common provisions that every lawyer, whether in-house or outside counsel, should have in her or his repertoire to ensure that no intellectual property assets are lost or forgotten.
