Our clients frequently call upon us to help them navigate the maze of legal and contractual requirements pertaining to the rights and obligations of both the federal agencies and their contractors to intellectual property provided or created under government contracts. Our attorneys advise clients on how and when to best protect their intellectual property from being acquired or copied by federal customers and third-party concerns, including the review and preparation of licensing agreements.
