We can handle patent searches, preparing patent applications, and prosecuting patent applications to allowance. We also conduct infringement analyses, prepare non-infringement and patent invalidity opinions, and counsel regarding non-infringing designs as they relate to food industry products, packaging and production equipment. When necessary, we will prepare and pursue cease-and-desist letters against infringers. Particularly in light of the IP implications of turnover in employees involved in plant genetic research and patents, we prosecute and defend claims arising under non-compete agreements, including claims for tortious interference, theft of trade secrets and unfair competition.
