Chemical is part of our work in Chemicals, Industrials, and Materials, and Energy.
From basic elements to highly specialized goods, chemicals are the foundation for products that change the way we live. The chemical industry plays a fundamental role in everything–from the raw materials used in manufacturing to the high-tech products that allow us to communicate, travel, eat, and save lives. Innovative companies and organizations are meeting the demand for greener, faster, and more flexible and efficient products. Beginning with the groundbreaking discoveries of Ziegler and Natta, and continuing with today’s nanotechnology advancements, Finnegan represents innovators that span the full breadth of the chemical industry.
Our team includes lawyers and professionals also trained as chemists, biological chemists, chemical engineers, polymer scientists, metallurgists, and material scientists. Some worked for major chemical companies, serving as corporate counsel or scientists. Whether it is a new chemical compound, a new combination of chemicals, or a special formulation behind the innovation, we work to protect the IP rights associated with the resulting compositions and products. The various segments of the chemical industry and their customers have their own rules, techniques, and subtleties that can significantly affect the technical and legal analyses and methods of protection. Clients rely on us to analyze their patent portfolios and provide comprehensive, accurate assessments of their IP assets, determining their value, identifying where they need protection, and uncovering potential challenges.
