全面探索有效灵活的备选方案

一旦聘用飞翰，我们将动用整个事务所的资源为您服务。我们将运用所有专长、声誉以及法律与技术经验，为您的案件寻求最合适的解决方案。首先，我们会开展坦城的对话、做及时谨慎的披露、仔细分析潜在风险与回报，并确定您所处地位的优势与劣势。我们将悉心倾听您的意见，以求深入了解您的业务目标、观点、风险承受力以及您的最终目标，然后根据您的需求组建团队和制定相应的方法和策略。

我们深知诉讼之艰难，令人望而生畏，但我们会努力与客户合作，寻找节省资源且能达成对案件有利结果的最佳解决方案。根据以前的经验，在美国地区法院，最终进入庭审阶段的案件不到4%。因此，我们一方面为潜在的初审或上诉做好准备，另一方面又致力于以最迅速、最经济的方式成功解决争议。也就是说，我们力求在诉讼之外寻求其它解决方案，例如许可、调解、仲裁，或在美国其它法院或行政机构，例如专利商标局或者国际贸易委员会,同时提起其它程序。当然，和解也可能是最好的解决方案。

随着案件进展，我们会根据需求调整我们的资源部署。处理知识产权案件通常有着多种方法。最重要的一点是我们保持灵活并至始至终为达到客户的目标而努力。
