Valuation of intellectual property is a complex topic: Each valuation reason and each type of IP right requires a different consideration and the application of the appropriate valuation approach. I can help you value your patents, trademarks/brands or trade secrets in connection with a legal dispute, for management purposes, for investor information, for tax reasons or for corporate law reasons. Whatever the reason, I will find the right solution for you. Our goal in preparing valuation reports for IP is to always present the valuation in a comprehensible and transparent manner and in a depth appropriate to the occasion.
