Intellectual Property

For many brands and businesses, their innovation and creativity — and their resulting intellectual property — are their most valuable assets. Success — and survival — can depend on protecting and exploiting these assets to their fullest potential, at home and around the globe.

Loeb & Loeb offers the full spectrum of legal services for the development, acquisition, commercialization, protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights worldwide.

We partner with clients across a diverse range of industries — from entertainment, media and advertising to financial services, consumer products and life sciences — to address their most critical IP needs. Whether you’re a Fortune 500 company or an emerging growth enterprise, an A-list celebrity or an up-and-coming influencer, we understand the factors that drive the value of your intellectual property.

Our lawyers use their knowledge of our clients’ industries and business objectives, and their skill as advisers, dealmakers and litigators, to provide business-focused insight, innovative approaches and strategic solutions that maximize opportunities, minimize risk and fend off competitive challenges.

From patent, copyright, trademark and personality assets to data privacy and security, domain name issues, and cutting-edge consumer engagement applications, we are fluent in all nuances of today’s intellectual property law.

We advise IP owners in complex transactions and represent them in high-stakes disputes. We get deals done — counseling on the IP-related aspects of mergers and acquisitions; conducting due diligence, intellectual property audits and valuations; and facilitating asset-based financing, licenses and joint ventures.

We also help clients protect and defend their intellectual property rights, advocating in federal and state courts and before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, at the International Trade Commission and in the Court of Federal Claims.
