Tiburon provides broad expertise to clients in all aspects of patent law and intellectual property. When you are ready to file a new patent application, you want an attorney who has actually licensed and litigated patents. Otherwise, your patent attorney is drafting a document without planning for its eventual use. Tiburon has depth in litigation, licensing, and sales, so is able to draft new applications that are valuable to clients. Our clients are issued patents that will build value to their portfolio.
We draft patent applications for your inventions - with an eye on how you will eventually sell, license, or litigate the patent.
We work directly with the USPTO to get you the highest quality patent, with the best possible claims at issue, and into the future after issue.
We work with startups and small businesses to craft an IP strategy, and build a patent portfolio, that builds long term company value and success.
We can license individual patents, or an entire portfolio, to one of the numerous companies we have worked with or against in the past.
We have a successful track record of litigating patents in a variety of courts.
We advise companies on the sales of IP portfolios, or the acquisition of their entire company.
Tiburon IP is unique among law firms, because we have experience in all aspects of patent practice. Some firms draft patents with an eye on what can be issued by the USPTO. We draft patents with an eye on how they will be successfully licensed, sold, or litigated. Some firms counsel clients on building a large profile with a lot of patents. We counsel clients on strategic, efficient solutions that build value for their company.
