Intellectual Property and Antitrust
Patents and other intellectual property consist of rights to non-tangible property, and include, besides patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade dress and trade secrets. Unlike physical property, intellectual property may not be very well-defined both in terms of its scope and value, and it may not be reflected on the financial reports of a company.
ARPC has expertise to value intellectual property including patents. Its experts are well-versed in the standard methods used to value intellectual property ranging from a single patent to a diverse portfolio consisting of several patents, trademarks, trade secrets and other intellectual assets.
Another service that ARPC provides is licensing of intellectual property including determination of appropriate licensing terms such as royalty rates and conducting market research studies for potential licensees (and possible infringers).
Finally, ARPC experts have conducted valuation of patents and other intellectual property for litigation purposes. They have conducted damage analysis using both reasonable royalty and lost profits framework including quantifying damages associated with price erosion claims. They have also estimated damages based on disgorgement of unjust gains and submitted expert reports. They are very familiar with the litigation process, including depositions and trials, and offer expert testimony.
ARPC consultants provide economic analysis on antitrust matters such as market definition, class certification and damage calculation. Additionally, ARPC consultants can provide expert witness testimony in antitrust litigation to support their analysis.
