Acquisitions

At Chernoff Vilhauer, we understand that acquiring a company’s intellectual property assets is a significant decision with potential risks and complexities.  That’s why clients turn to us for our expertise in evaluating the strength and validity of these assets, as well as identifying any hidden problems that may impact their value.

With our extensive experience of over half a century in the field, our firm excels in conducting thorough assessments to provide clients with a comprehensive understanding of the intellectual property assets they are considering.  We go beyond surface-level evaluations, delving into the intricacies of the assets to identify potential liabilities that could have adverse effects.

Our diligent approach involves scrutinizing various aspects of each asset.  We examine validity issues, ensuring that the intellectual property rights are legally sound and protected.  By conducting in-depth research, we evaluate the risk of potential infringement and breach of confidentiality claims that could arise from the acquisition.

Additionally, we investigate the presence of express and implied licenses to third parties, which may impact the exclusivity and value of the assets.  We also address any challenges related to title or inventorship, ensuring clarity and legitimacy in the ownership of the intellectual property.

Furthermore, our team diligently examines the status of patents or trademark registrations associated with the assets.  We identify any lapses that may have occurred and determine their implications on the overall value and enforceability of the intellectual property rights.
