Patent investigations
At Vaudra International, we appreciate the inherent complexities and nuances that are integral to developing, drawing, filing and obtaining a patent – not to mention the ingenuity, perseverance and investment necessary to convert an idea into an intellectual property asset. Often in today’s competitive market, safeguarding and protecting patents from would-be infringers is considered a cost of innovation.
As the patent owner or attorney, you are the expert on the patent(s) and innovative concepts that they protect. You also have intimate knowledge of its potential value to the enterprise, whether or not fully realized yet. Our role is to complement your expertise by providing the factual groundwork essential for identifying and proving patent infringement.
Customized Investigative Approach:
It often starts with a lead, whether a competitor’s claims at an industry tradeshow, a customer’s comment about a similar product in the marketplace or online posts touting copies in production as in this case study of design patent infringement.
From the initial thread, we weave the fabric to develop a foundation of facts and align our investigation strategies with your specific objectives. Our process is meticulously tailored to identify the nature of the suspected infringement and parties involved, focusing on uncovering the related activities, collecting tangible evidence, and documenting all pertinent facts. Elements to build your case may include evidential purchases, undercover dialog and digital profile captures, all admissible in court and completed in accordance with best practices by licensed investigators.
Positioned to Pivot:
With the end goal in mind, we chart a course while remaining open and receptive to possibilities. Our investigations are crafted with flexibility at their core, allowing us to adapt as new insights or unexpected challenges emerge. Whether the path leads to legal action, criminal enforcement or acquisition with discreet negotiations, we are equipped to shift tactics efficiently. This adaptability ensures that your strategic needs are met, regardless of how the investigative dynamics evolve.
Collaborative Mindset:
Our approach is inherently collaborative, ensuring that our efforts fuel overarching legal strategies and business intelligence goals. While working autonomously, we keep you informed of progress and milestones at your preferred cadence or targeted deadlines. As your go-to ally, we provide on-demand support and deliverables to empower your keenly informed, decisive actions.
