With IP law constantly changing and varies widely from country to country, it is advisable to seek professional counsel before making important intellectual property and licensing business decisions. HLG can advise in the clearance, protection, transfer, licensing and enforcement of intellectual property rights and in the review, drafting and negotiation of all related agreements of clients across a wide range of industries.
We draft, review, interpret and negotiate agreements which define the nature and scope of intellectual property rights, their ownership and their terms of use or transfer, from simple consents or releases to sophisticated licensing arrangements involving multiple rights and extensive terms and conditions. Key amongst IP protection for companies is registration of Trademarks, Copyright and Patents.
