Intellectual Property Services for Innovation at Every Stage.
Talem IP provides practical, technically driven legal services to help clients protect, manage, and commercialize the intellectual property that drives their business.
Our Practice Areas
Patent Counsel With the Technical Depth to Understand the Invention
Complex technology deserves counsel who can engage with the science and engineering. Our patent team works directly with inventors, researchers, R&D groups, and in-house counsel to develop patent protection that reflects both the technical innovation and the client's broader portfolio objectives.
Services include patent drafting and prosecution, portfolio management, international filing coordination, patentability and validity analysis, freedom-to-operate analysis, infringement analysis, and patent licensing.
IP and Legal Strategy for AI That Keeps Pace With the Technology
AI raises overlapping questions involving patents, trade secrets, software, data, contracts, ownership, confidentiality, and evolving regulation. We help clients determine what should be protected, how it should be protected, and how AI technologies can be developed, licensed, and deployed responsibly.
Services include:
- AI and software IP strategy
- Patent and trade-secret protection
- AI, software, and model licensing
- Data-use and development agreements
- AI vendor and technology agreements
- Internal AI policy and governance counseling
- Commercialization and partnership strategy
Build a Stronger IP Portfolio, Together
A strong IP portfolio should reflect what the organization is actually trying to accomplish. We help clients evaluate existing assets, identify gaps and opportunities, prioritize future protection, and connect IP spending to technology and business strategy.
Services include:
- IP portfolio reviews and strategic planning
- Invention harvesting and protection strategy
- Portfolio mapping against products and platform technologies
- Competitive and patent landscape analysis
- Patentability, freedom-to-operate, validity, and related assessments
- Development of short- and long-term IP priorities
- Fractional and outside Chief IP Counsel support
Protect the Brand You Are Building
Trademark strategy should support where a business is today and where it expects to go next. We help clients select, protect, manage, and license trademarks in the United States and internationally.
Our work includes clearance and filing strategy, prosecution, portfolio management, international coordination, licensing, and practical guidance on brand protection as companies expand into new products and markets.
Agreements That Help Move Technology Forward
Protecting intellectual property is only part of the equation. Our transactions practice helps clients structure the relationships that develop, fund, license, manufacture, deploy, and commercialize technology.
We regularly work on technology license agreements, software and SaaS agreements, development and collaboration agreements, data-use agreements, joint-development arrangements, manufacturing and supply agreements, hosting and cloud agreements, and other technology-driven commercial transactions.
From Research to Commercialization
Talem IP works with universities, research institutions, technology-transfer offices, and research teams to protect innovation and move promising technologies toward commercial use.
Services can include invention disclosure review, IP strategy and portfolio counseling, licensing and option agreements, research and development agreements, industry collaborations, technology-transfer templates and procedures, and commercialization support.
