Gibson Counsel Services

Our approach combines traditional IP expertise with practical understanding of conventional and emerging technologies to deliver business-focused counsel that protects your most valuable assets while accelerating your path to market.

• Go-to-Market Legal Strategy: Counsel on commercialization approaches, distribution models, and sales channel structures. We help you identify legal considerations in your GTM strategy—from direct sales to partnerships, resellers, and marketplace listings—so you can move quickly and confidently.

• IP Strategy & Protection: IP licensing agreements, joint development arrangements, technology transfer, and commercialization strategies. We structure deals that protect your IP while enabling productive business relationships and revenue generation.

• Trade Secret Programs: Trade secret identification, protection programs, confidentiality agreements, and enforcement strategy. For many businesses—particularly in the AI space—trade secret protection is more valuable and practical than patent protection.

• IP Due Diligence: IP portfolio review for M&A transactions, investment deals, and strategic partnerships. We identify IP risks, validate ownership claims, and assess the strength of IP assets to inform deal structure and valuation.

• AI/ML-Specific IP Counseling: Specialized guidance on training data rights, model outputs, and fair use analysis for AI applications.

• Privacy & Data Security Compliance: Practical counsel on privacy regulations, data protection frameworks, and cybersecurity requirements to support product sales and operations—critical for enterprise sales and customer trust.

• Incident Response: Guidance to contain and respond quickly and effectively to data security incidents that could impact customer relationships and market position.
