Intellectual Property Litigation
A recent survey puts intellectual property litigation costs for early-stage companies at $1-$3 million per year. We think you have better ways to spend that money.
If you’re a growing business, intellectual property litigation can shrink your market and eat your profits. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
