Our attorneys in the Intellectual Property and Technology Practice Group handle a broad range of transactional and counseling work in technology and intellectual property rights. This includes intellectual property audits, counseling arising from departing employees and related intellectual property matters, and the negotiation and documentation of all forms of intellectual property transactions and arrangements, including matters related to computers, website development, hosting agreements, computer software, technology transfers and licensing, and business outsourcing matters like credit card processing and fulfillment, online regulated industries, channel or portal arrangements, strategic alliances and cooperative advertising, linking and co-branding agreements, research and development agreements, joint venture agreements, technology transfers, asset assignments and purchases.

At Adorno & Yoss, we have also counseled clients on the potential value and feasibility of certain intellectual property assets in venture capital and other private equity formation transactions, mergers and acquisitions and bankruptcy or distressed property work-outs and restructurings.

Over many years of practice, our attorneys have worked with hundreds of clients and vendors focusing and refining our clients' business goals and assisting vendors in meeting the qualifications for business solution proposals. We have through these experiences gained a unique perspective to understand vendor businesses, management needs and "best practices" in order to help our technology business clients assess risks and opportunities and reach effective solutions for clients' specific transactions.

We also combine our expertise with that of the Firm's outstanding litigators to handle copyright and patent infringement litigation in both traditional and emerging areas like computer software and business method patents. We provide counseling and litigation representation dealing with the inter-relationship between intellectual property laws and trade laws. We have experience in trademark counseling and in prosecution, registration and litigation, both domestic and international, and related unfair competition counseling and litigation.
