About

Provided by Smith, Anderson, Blount, Dorsett, Mitchell & Jernigan, LLP

Smith Anderson’s intellectual property lawyers work with you to develop, protect and promote your knowledge, discoveries and innovations. We support our clients engaged in transactions to acquire, sell, finance, support, develop and monetize key intellectual property assets. 

This includes a variety of transaction arrangements, including mergers and acquisitions, strategic licensing and technology transfer, partnering and alliances, sponsored research, financing and manufacturing/sourcing arrangements. We also help clients to build and protect their brands through strategic development, maintenance and enforcement of trademark and service mark portfolios. We regularly assist clients with complex information privacy and data security issues, including breach notice and incident response. 

We also work with clients to resolve intellectual property-related disputes, such as patent and trade secret litigation, trademark litigation and oppositions, copyright litigation, licensing disputes and internet disputes.

Our intellectual property clients range from publicly-traded companies and well-established privately-held businesses to start-ups, emerging companies and university spin-outs. As a full-service firm, we also advise our clients on labor and employment matters, employee benefits, tax strategies, governmental relations, real estate and other business-related matters.
