McAndrews, Held & Malloy's biotechnology and pharmaceutical team serves as counsel for large and mid-sized, growth-oriented companies and startups in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical arenas.
The business-critical insights gained through our litigation successes in diverse intellectual property and complex technology matters enables our attorneys to develop pragmatic strategies for growing and managing our clients' intellectual property portfolios. This litigation experience is also evident in our approach towards the procurement of international and domestic patents, as well as the development of profitable licensing agreements. Examples of our recent successes include:
|
|
|
 |
Obtaining a settlement for a leading developer of biopharmaceuticals that included an assignment of the defendant's antibody expression technology, as well as a royalty-free, irrevocable and perpetual license to specified patents held by the defendant.
|
|
|
|
Discovering anticipatory prior art sufficient to invalidate a competitive patent portfolio and providing our client with freedom to operate in an area of interest.
|
|
|
Developing a patent portfolio on a novel DNA amplification technique and a contingency fee licensing program leveraging the patented technology for a large East-Coast university.
|
|
Our commitment to provide clients with superior legal counsel is matched with our diverse, yet specialized, technical knowledge in the complex fields of biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. A majority of our team members hold Ph.D.s in diverse research areas such as synthetic organic chemistry, immunology, molecular biology and biophysics.
In addition, many of our senior attorneys have advanced post-doctoral experience at institutions such as Stanford University, California Institute of Technology, University of Illinois and Michael Reese Hospital. By possessing this breadth of technical and legal strength, we are able to successfully navigate domestic and international procurement of patents, licensing and litigation matters in fields ranging from recombinant proteins, transformed viruses, and novel antibiotics and nucleotides, to polymeric chondritic pastes and humanized antibodies.
