Our AI Strategy for Transactions
AI-Powered
Human-Centric
Transactions
Unlike patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets — which are the assets you create and protect — transactions are how those assets become revenue, leverage, and valuation. Their value turns not on registration or conception, but on the quality of the deal and the strength of the record behind it. And because a well-negotiated agreement is not threatened by the unresolved questions of AI authorship and inventorship that constrain us elsewhere, this is where we deploy AI most aggressively.
This is the business-friendly half of the practice: value built with counterparties who want to build it with you. When they will not come to the table willingly, our Litigation practice is the other half of the coin — and the two are engineered to work as one.
We use AI to accelerate research, reduce costs, and improve efficiency across every stage of a deal — from strategy through signing day and beyond. AI helps us structure entities and equity, draft and review agreements, conduct due diligence, and build leverage. But it never replaces human judgment.
Every strategic decision, agreement, and legal action is written, reviewed, and signed by a registered attorney with 10,000+ hours of experience.
For deal strategy, we utilize AI-powered tools to (i) model the equity, entity, and IP-holding structures that best position you for investment and exit; (ii) map the agreements — founders’, investor, employment, and assignment — required to reward good behaviors, counter bad ones, and hold ownership where it belongs; and (iii) stress-test your goals, leverage, and available tools before you ever sit down at the table.
For drafting and negotiation, we utilize AI-powered tools to (i) draft routine agreements by feeding facts and vetted templates from our library to a private LLM, then carefully reviewing every result before it reaches you; (ii) accelerate custom agreements by deploying human experts first and our private LLM second, so that experience leads and technology follows; and (iii) review third-party papers with human-led, AI-powered redlining that surfaces risk, off-market terms, and negotiation openings.
For due diligence, we utilize AI-powered tools to (i) inventory, verify, and value the IP assets at the center of a transaction across jurisdictions and formats; (ii) surface chain-of-title gaps, encumbrances, and enforceability risks before they become deal-breakers; and (iii) give buyers, sellers, and investors sophisticated answers to sophisticated questions, at the speed the deal demands.
For monetization, we utilize AI-powered tools to (i) identify and profile willing counterparties for acquisitions, licenses, collaborations, and technology transfers; (ii) benchmark royalty structures, exclusivity terms, and deal values against comparable transactions; (iii) prepare you for negotiations with market data and competitive intelligence; and (iv) structure agreements that convert intellectual property into durable revenue.
When a counterparty refuses to deal, the same assets become leverage rather than currency. That is the province of our Litigation practice, which builds the evidentiary case file that turns a reluctant infringer into a willing licensee — then hands the resulting negotiation back to us to paper and close.
We understand that intellectual property only becomes wealth when it is deployed — in a license, an acquisition, a partnership, or a settlement that pays. Our best advice is to structure early, document relentlessly, and negotiate from strength — because the deal you structure today is the valuation you realize tomorrow.
