Young Basile has prepared and prosecuted thousands of patent applications in a wide range of technical areas. We are particularly experienced in the fields of software, automotive, robotics, semiconductors, electronics, chemicals and medical devices. Our well–established network of foreign associates gives us global reach and the ability to file, prosecute and obtain patents in countries around the world. Young Basile develops strategies for protecting and commercializing IP, addressing high stakes questions such as which technologies should be patented or licensed and how patents, once issued, can be cost–effectively enforced. We also assist clients in managing the patent process internally through patent programs and employee training. We provide advice in special situations, such as the establishment of or participation in patent pools or standards bodies. We work closely with clients to develop a deep understanding of their strategic business objectives and their industries. Using publicly available data and our proprietary processes, we help clients understand their competitors’ patent activity and identify trends, opportunities and threats.
