How do we avoid infringing patents?

Answer

Clearance searches and freedom to operate (FTO) opinions help you identify whether your product infringes any existing patents. FTO opinions are helpful to anticipate litigation risks before launching a new product.

If a clearance search indicates a risk that you are infringing, then you may be able to develop a “design around” strategy so that you can proceed with your product.

If you would like to assess your product, particularly with respect to one or more patents you may wish to design around, please contact RPL to speak with an experienced lawyer.
