Patent Infringement Opinions

Tomlinson, Rust, McKinstry & Grable attorneys routinely draft freedom-to-operate and patent infringement opinions for our clients, helping to determine whether they are free to develop their intellectual property without infringing upon a third party’s patent claims.

These opinions may include:

• Freedom to Operate Opinions, which are typically sought during the early budgeting, analysis and strategic development phase of the case and intended to mitigate the risks of future legal action by a third party.
• Patent Infringement Opinions, sought after a client has received notice of a particular patent upon which they could be infringing – either during the normal course of development or in response to a patent infringement demand letter.
