We are often asked by our DSO clients both large and small whether they should take the time and expense to execute license agreements with their affiliated practices for use of their trade names and other proprietary information, such as software and non-clinical business operations manuals.

We are often asked by our DSO clients both large and small whether they should take the time and expense to execute license agreements with their affiliated practices for use of their trade names and other proprietary information, such as software and non-clinical business operations manuals. Our answer is always an overwhelming yes. Over the many years we have represented DSOs, we’ve often been surprised that some organizations choose not to formally license the use of their intellectual property (IP). What these organizations do not realize is that failure to take this important step can have serious consequences, including difficulties in obtaining investors, lost revenue, the potential loss of the intellectual property rights, and trouble obtaining damages against parties that infringe on their property rights.
