Arch & Lake LLP helps U.S. and international technology companies obtain, manage, evaluate, commercialize, and enforce patent rights.

Our experience spans artificial intelligence, software, semiconductors, telecommunications, advanced displays, robotics, drones, batteries, medical devices, optical systems, and other complex technologies.

Patent Prosecution & Portfolio Strategy
We prepare and prosecute U.S. utility and design patent applications, coordinate international filings, and develop patent portfolios supporting product development, market entry, investment, licensing, and enforcement. We also assist with patent acquisitions, portfolio reviews, examiner interviews, appeals, and post-issuance strategy.

Technology Transfer & Licensing
We help companies acquire, license, transfer, and commercialize patent rights and technology. Our attorneys draft and negotiate patent licenses, cross-licenses, assignments, joint-development agreements, settlement agreements, and other IP-driven transactions.

Explore Technology Transfer & Licensing

Because patent prosecution, transactions, and disputes frequently affect one another, we approach patent matters as part of an integrated business and legal strategy. Whether a client is protecting a new technology, evaluating a competitor’s patent, acquiring a portfolio, entering the U.S. market, or preparing for litigation, we assemble a team suited to the matter’s technical, commercial, and procedural demands.
