At The Intersection Of Business, Law And Technology
Technology is changing at an unprecedented pace, making intellectual property law inseparable from business and scientific decisions for more and more business executives and entrepreneurs, especially when the government acts as a customer. Because of these trends, entrepreneurs, business executives, and investors alike are turning to Martensen IP for legal guidance at the complicated intersections of business with law, government contracts, and engineering.
Martensen understands the tools of IP: patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and licenses. Martensen knows the business of IP. We understand the tech market, especially when the government is a customer, and we know how to plan, assess, and adjust as landscapes evolve.
A Record of Success in Achieving Patent Coverage
As Patent attorneys with decades of experience we have drafted and prosecuted hundreds of patent applications. We have worked in large multinational law firms and corporations and with small startups and emerging companies.
IP Strategies to Enhance Competitive Advantage
We are hired because we think through permutation after permutation of how to create and then keep our client’s competitive advantages. Each of us is a seasoned attorney with big law firm and big client experience. We come up with great IP strategies to enhance our client’s competitive advantage but recognize that the technology will change, the environment will change, the competition will change and so will our plan; we’re ready.
Extensive Litigation Experience
We know code and have navigated, and continue to navigate, the challenges of protecting software, electronics, and electro-mechanical devices. We have done litigation, and because of that experience we know how to avoid the pitfalls of transactional IP work that allow seemingly solid patents, copyrights, and trademarks fall apart when facing the scrutiny of a court room setting.
Superior Legal Guidance
A Norwegian proverb states, “Experience is the best teacher, but the tuition is high.” People hire us because we’ve paid the tuition. Martensen IP is uniquely positioned not just as a provider of technical legal information, but as an integral member of a business’ advisory team.
