Linda Kennedy Available Now

I bring 20+ years of experience, including as in-house counsel for The Dow Chemical Co., Pratt & Whitney, and Collins Aerospace, to the complex legal and business issues facing high tech clients. Drawing from this experience, I guide clients in developing global intellectual property (IP) strategies tailored to their specific market considerations and business risks. Past IP strategies have included (i) engaging in joint development agreements with complementary technology partners, (ii) performing freedom-to-operate studies for product improvements and new products, (iii) filing selected patent applications in jurisdictions important to the specific market, and (iv) developing a global branding program using trademarks to effectively avoid counterfeiters at a relatively low cost.
