Patent License Agreement
A Patent License Agreement grants rights to use, manufacture, or sell an invention covered by a patent. This playbook focuses on negotiating royalty structures, field-of-use restrictions, and ownership of improvements.
Dispute Resolution

Negotiate for a jurisdiction that offers predictability and enforceability, such as New York. Ensure arbitration rules are favorable and cost-effective.
Advocate for a neutral jurisdiction that balances fairness and cost. Consider arbitration to avoid lengthy litigation.
