Not Your Typical Law Firm
Altera Law Group uniquely serves technology-centric clients with a common sense philosophy of creating and integrating intellectual property strategies that support, enhance, and enable our clients' business and marketplace tactics. More than simply securing patents, trademarks and copyrights, we guide our clients in the strategic deployment of their intellectual and technology assets to enhance shareholder value. Altera Law Group is dedicated to providing fast-growth technology companies with the ongoing legal resources, business knowledge and industry connections needed to grow a business from a start-up to a market leader.
More than a collection of lawyers…
To carry out its mission, Altera offers experienced intellectual property lawyers, scientists and engineers to assess and protect the market space that your technology is intended to deliver, as well as access to the employment attorneys, corporate attorneys, and business advisors needed to structure your company and processes to optimize the business that you build around your technology. And, when your market space or your technology is threatened, Altera offers litigators and dispute resolution specialists, experienced in technology disputes, to protect your investment when it counts. This expansive approach to our clients’ business allows them to work with a multidisciplinary team of advisors who can assess all intellectual and technology assets of their business and understand how those assets can be utilized to maximize their overall business objectives and strategies.
More than traditional intellectual property…
Altera’s roots are in providing legal advice and counseling related to traditional intellectual property matters – patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets. To truly enable our clients' success, it is vital to do more. Altera’s philosophy is to assist clients in leveraging all intellectual and technology assets, starting with traditional intellectual property, but also including research and development accomplishments, technology offerings, employee assets, brands, marketing strategies and competitive plans. These assets are the lifeblood of most organizations, and are typically overlooked by other more traditional “Intellectual Property” firms. Altera utilizes a unique approach that is designed to focus on each client’s business strategy as it relies on its intellectual and technology assets, and do what is necessary to make sure those assets are fully controlled and leveraged.
Altera is unique in its vision of intellectual and technology assets as means to an end rather than the end itself. The real goal is our clients' success in the marketplace. Altera uses legal and business tools to help clients protect intellectual assets in their market space to achieve ultimate success.
More than just your outside counsel…
Altera aims to be a true business adjunct to its clients, deploying a team of lawyers, scientists, engineers and strategic counselors to each client with the objective of truly understanding that client’s business, industry, competitive framework and how its intellectual assets interface with those areas. You should think of Altera as an in-house Law Department that just happens to office in a different location. You can use us to help resolve your complex IP and other legal issues when needed. Unlike a captive Legal Department, you don’t need to pay for us every day; you only pay for us when you need us. And when you need us, it is our promise to deliver state-of-the-art legal services by experienced professionals -- on time, and within budget.
