  MEETING ALL YOUR IP NEEDS

From patent and trademark prosecution and copyright registrations, to due diligence investigations, competitive intelligence and, when necessary, litigation, CTSW can help you develop and implement an integrated strategy for managing your intellectual property.

CTSW attorneys have prosecuted hundreds of patent applications relating to drug, biomedical, cosmetic and personal care products as well as methods for their use and delivery.

PATENT PROSECUTION AND OPINIONS

CTSW patent attorneys have authored opinion letters on patents covering virtually every major class of drugs.  Among others, we have opined on drugs for treating Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, cholesterol, depression, diabetes, epilepsy, hypertension, infections (bacterial, fungal, and viral), osteoporosis, pain and ulcers.

In cosmetics and personal care, CTSW attorneys have worked on projects involving a broad range of innovative delivery systems and products, including makeups, skincare actives, deodorants, antiperspirants, creams, lotions, depilatories, shampoos and sunscreens, as well as specialty items such as breath mints, chewing gums, toothpastes and mouthwashes.

We are also well-versed in drug delivery technologies, including transdermal patches, aerosols and controlled-release oral dosage forms.

PARAGRAPH IV AND OTHER IP LITIGATION

CTSW attorneys have litigated Paragraph IV cases, representing both branded and generic companies.  Additionally, we have prosecuted and defended charges of patent infringement and trade secret misappropriation involving cosmetics, pharmaceutical manufacturing processes, medical devices and food products.

COMPETITIVE INTELLIGENCE

Keeping one step ahead of the competition requires constant vigilance.  If a particular active ingredient or delivery technology is important to your company, CTSW attorneys can monitor published patent applications, issued patents and/or ongoing litigation and provide you with regular updates and analysis.
