Intellectual Property— By recognizing the role of IP for its key relation to business and engineering decisions, my team specializes in legal education and representation of our clients.We offer a broad range of intellectual property rights (IPR) matters including patent portfolio management, intellectual property due diligence review, trademark law, security and asset protection, client counseling in areas of infringement and validity of patents, freedom to operate and product clearance investigations.Martensen IP helps clients negotiate the pitfalls of working with the government sector in terms of protecting intellectual property as it relates to government contracts and the prime/subcontractor relationship. Counseling start-up and emerging companies on protecting and commercializing intellectual property developed under government funding remains a central focus of our practice.Crafting and implementing intellectual property protection strategies through use of trademarks, trade secrets, copyrights and patents is vital to a company's longevity. Whether prosecuting patents in the technical fields of computer science, software, Internet-related technologies, semiconductor devices and materials or protecting the encryption, fluid dynamics, medical devices and the mechanical arts (specializing in aerospace related inventions) through the use of copyrights and trade secrets, our expertise is evident and proven.
